About the wine


Malvasia Secco is a unique sparkling wine made by fermenting grapes with their skins on and undergoing a second fermentation in the bottle. It's not disgorged, resulting in an amber haze. This method enhances its fruity, herbal, and dried apricot flavours, making it exceptionally enjoyable to drink. A joyous Pet Nat style drop.
