Tasting Notes: Tessari Garganega Spumante Avus is a sparkling wine made from the Garganega grape variety, which is native to the Veneto region of Italy. The wine is produced by the Tessari family, who have been making wine for four generations in the Soave DOC area of the Veneto.
The Tessari Garganega Spumante Avus is made using the traditional method, also known as the Champagne method, which involves a secondary fermentation in the bottle. This process creates the characteristic fine bubbles and complexity of flavor that are associated with high-quality sparkling wines.
The wine has a bright straw yellow color and a lively, persistent perlage. On the nose, it is fresh and fruity, with aromas of white peach, pear, and citrus. On the palate, it is dry, well-balanced, and refreshing, with a delicate mineral note and a long, pleasant finish.
Tessari Garganega Spumante Avus is a versatile wine that can be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif or paired with a variety of dishes, including seafood, pasta, and white meat. It is best served chilled, at a temperature of around 6-8°C
