Querciole is a frizzante made from Spergola that makes almost everything coming out of the Prosecco region look old and rather dull by comparison. The intention behind it may be similar, but what Ca’ de Noci bottles year after year for its secondary fermentation is, in terms of vitality, freshness, juiciness, and precision, miles ahead of its more famous frizzante counterparts from the Veneto.
There are plenty of reasons for this: Ca’ de Noci has been committed to organic farming and manual labor for more than two decades, working with low yields and perfect grapes, spontaneous fermentation, gentle cellar work, and secondary fermentation in the bottle. In addition, Ca’ de Noci has Spergola—a little-known but sparkling wine-worthy grape variety that impresses with fine tannins, gripping acidity, and subtle yet persistent aromas.
Style
Lively, profound, and straightforward. Aromas of grapefruit, yellow flowers, tonic, and brioche shape the bouquet. The mousse is creamy and crackling, the structure direct and pulsating, the body elegant and effortless. A characterful and easy-drinking frizzante for every day.
