Pink Perfection: A Review of Mida Spumante Metodo Classico Rosé 2015’s Salty and Rocky Flavors
Mida Vino Spumante Metodo Classico Rosé 2015 is one of the novelties of the legendary Mida winery from the Marches, a wine that demonstrates how ductile and elegant Montepulciano can be, even in the form of sparkling wine. Because it is not dosed, don’t expect a soft and creamy sparkling wine, but rather a rock covered in moss.
It is not a colossal sparkling wine or one with a mammoth structure; on the contrary, it focuses a lot on freshness, drinkability, and purity. The watchword is juiciness.
Even after 5 years, this vintage, which we remember as the first, is doing well.Indeed, this further period of aging in the bottle has helped the wine find more complexity and harmony between its hard parts, yeasts, and fruit.
How Mida Vino Spumante Classic Method Rosé 2015 is produced
manual harvest of the grapes in September from vines that are at least 30 years old. organic management of the vineyard for more than 15 years. Soft pressing with short maceration Fermentation and aging in steel To start the second fermentation, sugar and wine from the same vintage are added, corked, and left to rest for 24 months.

The result is a sword of pleasure. It is a sparkling wine that does not want to have a crazy development of the yeasts but instead focuses on the fleshy and sensual charm of Montepulciano.

After all, it is a pas dosé from an openly natural cellar that does not add sulfites and does not filter the wines. Furthermore, no house wines are added, but only wines of the same vintage.
A crystalline purity elevates the wine, making it worthy.
The bouquet is shady, full of flowers, with hints of cherries and undergrowth. Puffs of mint and cocoa, watermelon, and then a splendid orange finish Everything is whispered delicately; the tone is austere, with almost balsamic references to eucalyptus.
Don’t expect a bomb or mature tones; as mentioned, it looks like a razor. The yeasts have worked well, but they are not overwhelming, and you will find the usual pastry scents, cotton candy, and endless nasal onanists.
On the palate, it is very acidic, furrowed with a fine perlage that gives structure and consistency to the sip. The structure is medium, but the reach is splendid. Sea and citrus are described as “dynamic,” “stimulating,” and “unstoppable.”The balance is already there, but with this freshness, it will have no problem evolving. very long finish.
