Ortrugo Frizzante by Torre Fornello is a sparkling white wine where the ease of drinking represents the key to an engaging tasting experience. Fresh and young on the palate, it aligns with a light nose, dominated by a mix of fruity and floral notes. A bottle that pays homage to the territory of the Colli Piacentini, expressing it through a local grape variety that testifies to the winery's connection to these areas. A label that tells the irresistible charm of simplicity, presenting itself at a truly interesting final price.

The Ortrugo Frizzante is made by Torre Fornello starting from the use of Ortrugo grapes, a native variety mainly grown around Piacenza, where the winery is located. The vines, which are over twenty years old, grow using the casarsa system within parcels characterized by a predominantly calcareous and clayey subsoil. The fermentation of the must – derived from the gentle pressing of the grapes – ferments for the first time in stainless steel tanks,to then referment in autoclave following the rules that are the basis of the production of Metodo Martinotti.

The white Ortrugo Frizzante from Torre Fornello presents itself to the eye with a straw yellow color. The bouquet is light, with notes that enchant the nose, characterized by a range of fresh aromas where freshly picked flowers and hints of white-fleshed fruit follow one another with linearity and delicacy. On the palate, it is light-bodied, with a dynamic and energetic sip, which thanks to the sparkling texture flows with enviable drinkability, highlighting a fresh and dry taste at the same time. A label that feels at home on the table with platters of cold cuts and cheeses, and pairs well with fish recipes
