Erbaluce di Caluso DOCG Spumante
Calliope Brut spakling wine is our most complex erbaluce sparkling wine. Its special personality comes from a selection of the best erbaluce grapes that ferment in new oak barrels and stay in barrel along with their lees for a period of 9 months. This wine is then assembled with stainless steel fermented erbaluce and then bottled for re-fermentation. The sparkling winemaking process lasts at least 36 months. After degorgement, the wine fines in bottles for further 6 months.
