Riserva dell'Ingegnere - Monti Lessini Metodo Classico Zero Dosage 60 Months 2018 Casa Cecchin
Riserva dell'Ingegnere is the wine with which Casa Cecchin pays tribute to its founder, Renato Cecchin: the engineer who, in 1973, planted the first Durella rows on this volcanic hill, when everyone considered that grape variety harsh and untamable, and who, in 1989, produced the first Lessini Durello Metodo Classico in the winery's history. Produced only in the best vintages, Riserva dell'Ingegnere is the highest demonstration of what Renato always believed in: that Durella, given enough time, becomes something extraordinary. The grapes come from the same vineyard planted in 1976, propagated by cuttings from an old mass selection found in Agugliana, on volcanic soils of tuff and basalt that impart a unique minerality and tension to the wine. Sixty months on the lees, with no added sugars: just Durella, in its purest and most complex form.

Vinificazione |
Manual harvest with accurate selection in the vineyard. The grapes are pressed whole, and the different parcels are vinified separately, expertly blended in January. The base wine matures in steel tanks on the lees with periodic bâtonnage, followed by secondary fermentation in late spring. The bottles are stacked in an underground cellar for a minimum of 60 months. Remuage is performed manually using hexagonal baskets patented by Renato Cecchin. After disgorgement, a resting period of several months follows. No added dosage. Disgorgement 10/24 |
Profumo |
The nose has mineral sulphurous notes and burnt caramel, with an olfactory depth that speaks of the years spent on the lees. |
Gusto |
On the palate, the sip is full and energetic, supported by a continuous citrus component that encourages another glass and prolongs the finish almost inexhaustibly. A wine capable of delivering emotions even ten years or more after disgorgement. |
Abbinamento |
Vicenza-style dried cod, Venetian-style creamed dried cod, noble crustaceans, aged hard cheeses, Parmesan Reggiano risotto. |
