Valli Unite 'Il Brut and The Beast'

Country: Italy

Region: Piemonte

Grapes: Cortese, Malavasia, Chasellas

ABV: 12%

The name of this natural wine fits its character perfectly. This white is a sort of a beast, wild, it might even scare some of us with an accustomed palate with its cidery aromas that meet a sharp, acidic palate of dry white fruit. Brut natural wine equals “beauty” is how this bubbly unravels itself after 20 minutes or so. The beast becomes somewhat softer and all of the components come together to an addictive sip (or gobble); refreshing with delicate notes of quince and toasted buttered green apple on a lively palate dominated by crisp & soft bubbles and a long finish.
