LA CANTINA DEI COLLI RIPANI SOC.COOP. - contrada Tosciano, 28 - 63065 Ripatransone (AP)
Passerina is an ancient white grape variety, traditionally grown in the Marche and Abruzzo regions. Particularly appreciated for its fruity aromas and fresh acidity, it is a grape variety that has amply demonstrated its versatility, giving rise to still and sparkling wines of great pleasantness. A fine example is this Spumante Brut Olimpus, proposed by Cantina dei Colli Ripani. Brilliant and refined, this sparkling wine comes from the rigorous selection of grapes that are transformed according to the 'long' Charmat method. Processed in an autoclave, in this case the wine remains in contact with the lees for a prolonged period, varying between 6 and 9 months, developing more complex aromas and perfumes. In the glass Olimpus seduces with its straw yellow colour, while the perlage is fine and persistent. On the nose, its bouquet is distinctly fruity, with clear references to yellow fruits such as peach and apricot, enriched by delicate floral notes. Perfect as an aperitif, this Marche Region sparkling wine goes well with fish-based appetisers.
Colli Ripani: building our future one step at a time. We are in the Marche, in the hilly area that follows the river valleys to the Adriatic. And we are about 500 metres above sea level, yet incredibly close to the coast. This is where the Cantina dei Colli Ripani is located, one of the best known and most productive wineries in the region. Founded in 1969, the first winemaking took place in 1977. Today, it can count on the work of more than 330 'native' producers, united by the desire to enhance local wine production and in particular the area's good grape varieties, such as Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Pecorino and Passerina. The Cantina Cooperativa concretely supports the work of each member and coordinates all stages of the process: from work in the countryside to the processing of raw materials and the marketing of the finished product. This allows the members to receive a fair agricultural income, guaranteeing the sustainability of their work and the preservation of ancient traditions.
