Sensory profile

Presentation: Straw yellow. Creamy mousse and delicate, long-lasting bead

Nose: Generous fruit, releasing hints of apples, peaches and tropical fruit, plus wisteria and acacia blossoms. Wonderful balance and elegance complement a pleasurably crisp spiciness

Palate: Velvety, crisp, and fruity. Admirable fullness and length, closely mirroring the nose. A wine of great balance and elegance

Food recommendation

An excellent aperitif for all social occasions, especially festive gatherings. Matches well with pastries and cakes (without fillings) and with canapés. A particularly good match for pandoro and panettone

Serving temperature

Chill to 7-8° C before serving. An ice bucket is the perfect presentation

Serving glass

White wine glass, medium-wide. Avoid using tall, slender flutes: while they maximize enjoyment of the bead, they inhibit release of the wine’s bouquet

Cellaring

Store away from heat and light, but not in the refrigerator

Optimal time to enjoy

Dei Casel Extra Dry displays its truest characteristics--crisp, fresh, and fruity--if consumed in the year after vintage. However, in the following years, if cellared under proper conditions, intensity of flavours and fruitiness will lessen somewhat, but the wine-lover may be pleasantly surprised by a greater complexity on nose and palate
