The grapes are harvested by hand from late September into early October, with their naturally high acidity providing the foundation for extended sparkling-wine maturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base wine is fermented in stainless steel with a portion in wood before a second fermentation in bottle. It then remains on its lees for a minimum of 36 months, developing greater depth and savoury complexity while preserving Durella’s firm, refreshing structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBright straw yellow with golden highlights and a fine, persistent mousse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eNose\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCitrus peel and orchard fruit are layered with bread crust, fresh yeast and a restrained note of dried fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003ePalate\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDry, harmonious and energetic. Fine bubbles carry flavours of crisp apple, lemon and toasted almond, while long lees ageing contributes breadth and a gentle savoury character. A mineral edge and vivid acidity keep the finish precise and refreshing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFood pairing\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTry it with smoked haddock fishcakes, grilled langoustines, roast chicken with thyme, or a mushroom and Parmesan tart. Its combination of fine bubbles and acidity also makes it an excellent aperitif with salted almonds and hard cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBackground story\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLessini Durello is one of the Veneto’s most individual sparkling-wine traditions. The local Durella grape can appear austere when young, but its pronounced acidity makes it particularly rewarding when given time on the lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 36-month cuvée shows Fattori’s more patient interpretation of the variety. Bottle fermentation and prolonged ageing bring bread-like, nutty complexity to the grape’s citrus and mineral core, clearly distinguishing it from the brighter, tank-fermented Roncà di Roncà.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fattori","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":28854739173436,"sku":"FATLESS36","price":26.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0036\/1984\/8252\/files\/antonio-fattori-ronca-metodo-classico-36-months-doc-lessini-durello-0-standardised-600x960.png?v=1791377696","url":"https:\/\/sommelierschoice.co.uk\/products\/ronca-metodo-classico-36-months-doc-lessini-durello","provider":"Sommelier's Choice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
