Description
Movia Puro
Movia Puro is a very special sparkling wine with an endless life. A Puro turned upside-down can live forever, as its permanently present yeasts are capable of keeping it alive for years.
Golden colour with a medium orange-red hue. Fresh aromas of red berries and crisp apple with a secondary wave of brioche and yeast. The dry and soft-textured palate is complex yet very smooth, creamy and pure. Persistent and lively bubbles. Delectable core flavours of baked apples and pears with layers of apricot, orange peel, honey and brioche. An excellent sparkling wine.
How to disgorge Puro
Puro is special because you have to disgorge it yourself when you open the bottle! Disgorgement, or dégorgement in French, is a technique used in the traditional method of sparkling wine production that removes dead yeast cells and sediment from the neck of the wine bottle after secondary fermentation. Wine producers typically disgorge the wine for you by freezing the bottle’s neck and quickly extracting the solids. You'll have to disgorge Puro by hand the old-fashioned way – by opening the bottle and quickly releasing the sentiment.
The reason Puro isn't disgorged by its producers is to give the wine a continuous, endless life with its own natural yeasts. It also means the wine contains no preservatives. Some may find this procedure of opening the wine unpractical. But we think that besides drinking it, opening Puro is a fun experience!
