Wednesday 20th November join us for an evening with the unique sparkling wines from Mattia Corbellini of Cherubini.
Mattia is farming two hectares of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in an enchanting valley within the Parco delle Colline di Brescia in eastern Lombardy, on the border of the Franciacorta production area. Employing chemical-free farming practices and a personal interpretation of winemaking, Mattia bypasses the restrictions imposed by the Franciacorta DOCG regulations, becoming one of the most original producers in this area.
All the wines ferment with indigenous yeasts in concrete tanks before being transferred to a mix of new and old barriques for a few months before bottling. The incredibly complex reserve wines are the fruit of a solera system assembled over a decade, aged under a flor layer in old barriques. After resting on the lees, Mattia disgorges every bottle by hand, topping up with the still wine from the same vintage with no dosage.
Booking available on our website. Looking forward to see you all.
