Nicola Gatta Cuvée Nature, N/V Russian River under the blend's naturally freshThis wine is made from 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir. It is declassified Franciacorta due to the holistic biodynamic approach Nicola takes with his vines. Vinification takes place by spontaneous fermentation in a mix of stainless steel and cement, and the wine spends 30 "moons" on its lees (2. 5 years).
