Terzavia 2020 Metodo Classico – De Bartoli
The Terzavia 2020 Metodo Classico is the “third way” of Grillo, a millesimato sparkling wine that embodies the vitality and tradition of Sicily. Produced by De Bartoli, it blends French classic method expertise with the unique personality of the Grillo grape, yielding a wine of freshness, elegance, and mineral complexity.
Grapes come from 3,500 vines per hectare with roots over 30 years old in C.da Samperi, Marsala. After careful hand-harvesting and soft pressing of whole bunches, the must decants naturally and ferments in stainless steel tanks, with a portion in French oak barrels (about 20%) using indigenous yeasts and minimal sulfites. Tirage with fresh must initiates the secondary fermentation, followed by at least 18 months on the lees in bottle. The sparkling wine is non-dosé, expressing maximum purity and terroir.
The wine shows a bright golden yellow hue, fine and persistent bubbles, and aromas of white flowers, yellow fruit, and delicate bread crust notes, while the palate is fresh, complex, and harmonious. Ideal with seafood starters, tuna tartare, or traditional Sicilian dishes, and perfect as a sophisticated aperitif.
