A selection of Verdicchio grapes in purity, grown in a special terroir that gives the wine freshness and minerality, gives life to this classic method sparkling wine that ages for a long time in the quiet of the caves of the Piano di Rustano estate this is how it is born Essentia
Essentia: special wine
Essentia was born at the precise moment in which honey is added to the fermenting must. From that moment on, the yeasts, protagonists of alcoholic fermentation, find themselves eating the sugars present in the must and in the honey without distinction.
Thus all the aromas of Malvasia wine change and are enriched by the extraordinary variety of aromas and perfumes of multi-flower honey, this too was collected in the Tenuta Piano di Rustano. The final product, dry but with light notes of honey in the aftertaste, complex and unique because covered by patent, is the excellence of the Tenuta Piano di Rustano.
