NV Família Geisse Cave Amadeu Rústico Nature Non-Disgorged

Cave Geisse is a boutique, internationally acclaimed producer of fine sparking wine in the south of Brazil.

The Geisse family, originally from Chile, moved to Pinto Bandeira, Brazil to unleash the potential of the mineral composition found in the southern region’s soil and perfect for crafting high quality, sparkling wine. The family grows only Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with distinctive blends made for different lines. Time on lees ranges from a minimum of 12 months up to 14 years.

In addition, the Geisse Winery is committed to the health of the environment, its employees, and customers. Using zero pesticides, the winery has adopted a Chilean technology called the Thermal Pest Control (TPC) system, which negates the need for pesticides. This technique protects and stimulates the self-defense mechanism of the vine, resulting in even higher quality wines - while keeping chemicals out their fine products. Geisse Winery further has generous labor policies and offers standalone family homes on the vineyard to its employees.

The wine is yellow gold color with fine perlage. On the nose youi’ll detect a persistence of ripe fruit and floral notes. On the palate the acidity and alcohol are in good balance with a soft mouthfeel. Dried fruits flavors along with a pleasant finish. Wine can be enjoyed with appetizers, fish and poultry dishes.

Note: This wine can be enjoyed by removing the wax seal and then opened with a corkscrew, or can be disgorged (remove the yeast) with instructions provided on the label or with a QR scan and video provided on the bottle.
