Fratelli Abrigo - Alta Langa 2015 Metodo Classico Brut ' Sivà '

Robert Parker : 90

' The Fratelli Abrigo 2015 Alta Langa Metodo Classico Brut Sivà is a pure expression of Chardonnay (aged on the lees for 30 months), and the bouquet is very faithful to the grape. Orchard fruit, peach, honey and citrus emerge from the glass, with toasted hazelnut and baked bread as well. The fruit comes from a high-altitude site (at 500 meters above sea level) with calcareous clay soils. This pretty sparkler shows power and rich flavor concentration over a mid-weight approach. Some 4,000 bottles were made. '
