Controguerra Passerina
Colle Trà
DOP
€13.50
Tax excluded
Our Passerina Colle Trà derives from an ancient bunch clone, "spargolo" or "loose bunch", the so-called "Trebbiano scienciato". Compared to the compactness of the traditional grape, the "spargolo" is of elongated shape and is less subject to rot, which can be caused by humidity. The Passerina must undergo a process of spontaneous fermentation triggered by indigenous yeast, like all the wines in the Colle Trà line.
