Divella is a small company in the Franciacorta area that produces Classic Method sparkling wines with great personality and character. Alessandra Divella is a young and ambitious first generation winemaker who, less than 30 years old, took over 2 hectares of vineyards with the aim of giving life to authentic and artisanal wines, the result of spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts and long refinements in cement and tonneau. The labels currently on the market have the production constant of being all Pas Dosè, that is, without the addition of liqueur d'expedition, and are presented in their absolute frankness, without the need for any make-up and retouching before leaving the cellar that made them. patiently rocked for a long time.
The Divella winery is located in Gussago, on the eastern borders of the Franciacorta area, where the morphology of the soil is of ancient origin with a mixed composition of limestone, fossils and clay and where the high temperature variations between day and night, typical of hilly area, determine a perfect concentration of aromatic substances in the peel. Divella bubbles are representative of the territory they come from, they are fresh, mineral and rich in juice. The varieties are the traditional ones of the Franciacorta area, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, processed in the cellar with spontaneous micro-vinifications activated only with indigenous yeasts in order to best preserve the typical aromatic characteristics of the type. The philosophy of not artificially modifying the natural profile of the grape is also found in the choice of fermenting and refining the base wines in used cement vats and wooden tonneaus, simple containers and not flavor enhancers. Aging on the lees extends over a period of time ranging from 2 to 5 years, based on the peculiarities of the vintage and the grape.
Divella Gussago's bubbles speak the same language as the winemaker who produced them; they have a fine and enveloping perlage, they are frank and not pimp, they have a sharp entrance in the mouth and leave a juicy and very long memory on the palate. They do not need added sugars and too much sulfur, they prefer to appear for what they really are: elegant and with great personality, multifaceted and infinitely enjoyable.
