Bottega Miabi Pinot Noir Brut Sparkling NV

Japanese and Italian artistry combine to create probably the finest wine to pair with sushi and sashimi.

Bottega Miabi is crafted using pure Pinot Noir grapes from the banks of the Po river in Lombardy, vinified using the same method as Prosecco. However, where it differs from most Prosecco (apart from the grape variety) is that it undergoes an extended ageing on the lees (the spent yeast) for three months. During this time, the lees are regularly stirred up adding creaminess, yeastiness and texture to the wine. The result is a rich and velvety sparkling wine cut with notes of crusty baguette, frangipane, lemon zest, golden apple, apricot sorbet and orchard blossom. 

The stunning bottle, in its chic gift box, is inspired by a Japanese decorative technique called “dyed obi”, which is used to create the stunning belts worn around kimonos. This makes Bottega Miabi both visually and stylistically perfect for pairing with the refined flavours of raw fish, rice dishes, tempura, soba noodles and aemono. Kanpai!

Mighty oaks from little acorns grow. In 1653, Andrea Bottega tended his first vines near the picturesque Molinetto della Croda in Refrontolo, Veneto. This farmer’s dream blossomed into one of Italy’s most recognisable brands, producing a dizzying array of glamorous Prosecco, Moscato, Grappa, liqueurs and spirits. Today, with hundreds of awards under its belt, the Bottega name is known and loved in 132 countries around the globe.
