This is our award winning Little Waddon Vineyard sparkling white Col Fondo 2022
Col Fondo is an Italian ancestral method semi-sparkling wine made by creating a second fermentation in bottle
‘Con il Fondo’ translates literally as ‘with the bottom’ – meaning sediment or lees is present. This is all part of the wine style and adds an interesting complexity and mouth feel

First wild fermentation, followed by malolactic fermentation, cold curing over winter, and then second fermentation in bottle
A low intervention wine giving frizzante ‘little bubbles’
An aromatic complexity of honeysuckle, peach and almond well balanced with and a fresh lime acidity and an elderflower finish
