Private Cuvée Spumante

Zardetto created a special Cuvée with a blend of Glera, for long-lasting, expressive citrus notes, Chardonnay, for rich body and creamy texture, and Muscat, for fresh floral and grapey aromas. This fine Cuvée manages to be both playful and refined at the same time—sure to please even the most discerning palates.

Tasting Notes

Brilliant straw-yellow in color with a delicate perlage, this sparkler expresses notes of pears, apples and peaches with a hint of wild flowers.

Food Pairing

Pairs perfectly with grilled fish, smoked trout, grilled vegetables, vegetarian salads and Asian cuisines, such as spring rolls or chicken satay.
