In 1895, Federico Martinotti from Villanova Monferrato in Piedmont developed the method that now bears his name – an Italian alternative to traditional bottle fermentation, in which the second fermentation takes place in a pressure tank instead. Bisci, the benchmark producer of Verdicchio di Matelica since 1972, applies this method in its extended form: ten months instead of the usual few weeks. The grapes are grown on 17.80 hectares in Matelica, on calcareous-clay soil with a south-south-west aspect; they are organically farmed and harvested by hand. The wine is made exclusively from Verdicchio, the grape variety that gives this area its name and character. The extended ageing on the lees in a pressure tank lends the spumante complexity and finesse before it is bottled with a low dosage.

A pale straw-yellow colour with the characteristic greenish hues that gave Verdicchio its name. A spumante of fresh, unpretentious elegance – the hallmark of Verdicchio in its finest sparkling form. SUPERIORE.DE
