Tasting notes
Produced from the Glera grape in Northeastern Italy, Blancjat is a natural sparkling wine with apple and pear notes and a light hint of acacia flowers. The same notes dominate the palate with excellent acidity and balance. Perfect with a wide variety of lighter dishes because of its fine bubbles and complexity. Excellent with fish and white meat dishes but can also be enjoyed with pizza and appetizers.
