The Spumante Opera Brut di Le Marchesine is an elegant sparkling wine made with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Blanc grapes hand-harvested in the company's vineyards located in the territory of Passirano, in the province of Brescia. In the cellar, the grapes were vinified as white wine, therefore without maceration of the must on the skins, with alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The sparkling process took place thanks to a second fermentation induced by the liqueur d'expédition (a mix of wine, sugars, and yeasts) carried out in the bottle. Here the wine aged for 18 months in contact with the lees.

It closes with a pleasant slightly bitter finish. Excellent as an aperitif, it pairs perfectly with cheeses and vegetarian dishes as well as with delicious fish recipes.
