Musita Passocalcara Method Classico Sicilia DOC is a Sicilian sparkling wine made from 100% Chardonnay grapes from the hills of Salemi, Sicily. This sparkling wine, with an alcohol content of 13%, is produced using the Metodo Classico Pas Dosé Method and is certified organic. The vines grow on medium-textured, calcareous soils, which give the wine a distinctive minerality. The winemaking process begins with loading the press with whole bunches of grapes and gently pressing them, separating the must to use only the portions extracted at lower pressures, thus better preserving the product's acidity and flavor. This is followed by the inoculation of selected yeasts and an initial fermentation at a controlled temperature of 13–14°C. The wine ages in stainless steel on its fine lees until the secondary fermentation, which takes place the following spring. The wine is then bottled for secondary fermentation and aging, a process that lasts approximately 48 months. This lengthy aging process gives Musita Passocalcara extraordinary complexity and finesse. It's an ideal wine to pair with appetizers, first courses, fish, shellfish, cured meats, and vegetables. The recommended serving temperature is 6°C. The winery is certified organic, guaranteeing a product that respects the environment and Sicilian winemaking tradition.
