Spumante VSQ Brut Riserva 'D'Antan' Vintage 2013 (750 ml.) La Scolca
Spumante Metodo Classico Riserva 'D’Antan' Millesimato 2013 by La Scolca is a masterful expression of Cortese, crafted exclusively from hand-selected grapes grown in the estate’s oldest and most prestigious vineyards in Gavi. Produced using the Traditional Method, it undergoes an exceptional ageing of over 120 months on the lees, followed by zero dosage disgorgement, ensuring absolute purity and authenticity. The bouquet is elegant and layered, with notes of toasted hazelnut, candied citrus peel, acacia honey, and flint. On the palate, it reveals a vibrant, bone-dry character, marked by ultra-fine perlage, deep minerality, and a long, persistent finish. An ideal pairing with oysters, refined seafood crudo, caviar, gourmet sushi, and also with aged cheeses or truffle-based dishes. A timeless vintage sparkling wine for true connoisseurs.

Address:

Color: bright golden yellow, with intense reflections.
Perlage: very fine and continuous, a sign of long maturation.
Bouquet: extraordinary complexity: notes of candied citrus, acacia honey, ripe yellow fruit and dried apricot open, followed by nuances of sweet spices, saffron, bread crust and flint, which evolve with oxygenation into accents of hazelnut, toasted almond and dry hay.
Taste: broad, creamy and deep, with a surprising freshness that balances the evolution. The mineral texture is sculpted and saline, with savory returns and a persistence that recalls honey, citrus and spices. A meditation wine, which combines tension and roundness, elegance and character.

THE COMPANY
La Scolca estate was purchased between 1917 and 1919 by the great-grandfather of the current owner Giorgio Soldati who today runs the company together with his daughter Chiara Soldati.
The name of the plot derives from the ancient toponym Sfurca or "To look away" and the farmhouse that stood there was in the past a lookout post; the surname fully reflects the proud and tenacious character of the owners and their wines.
At the time of purchase, the property was partly covered by woods, partly cultivated with wheat. It was a well-studied intuition to plant Cortese vineyards in 1900 in an area exclusively dedicated to the cultivation of red berry vineyards: the name of the company was never prophetic. Production soon became a primary technical and entrepreneurial activity.
