A vintage Blanc de Blancs obtained from a special selection of Chardonnay grapes grown in mountainside vineyards situated in Trentino’s finest zones for the production of Trentodoc wines. Ferrari Perlé is the icon of the Ferrari style, a synthesis of elegance, freshness and harmonious complexity.
Its golden hue is reminiscent of the more intense straw colours. Characterized by a fine and persistent perlage, it opens with flavours of citrus freshness, pineapple and grapefruit, peach and rennet apple, sponge cake and delicate honeyed notes. When still, it also reveals touches of yellow flowers and spices. At the palate it is fresh, tense and rich. It closes long and with a hint of summer fruit on the finish.
93 Decanter Produced since 1971, Perlé 2017 uses some of Ferrari's best estate Chardonnay, matured on the lees for five years (disgorged 2022). There's a slight patisserie aroma, along with some soft stone fruit hints. In the mouth it's intense, rich and sapid, slightly nutty and honeyed with a complexity of flint, citrus peel and lemon juice. Bright and juicy on the finish. Classy stuff! Drink Window: 2023-2027.

92 Vinous The 2017 Brut Perlé Trentadoc blends vividly ripe apples and pear with enriching raw almond and white flower notes. It opens with a pretty inner sweetness contrasted by saline minerals that add a pleasant crunch as ripe orchard fruits give way to hints of hazelnut. Despite its size, the 2017 finishes remarkably fresh, ending with candied ginger and a sour tinge of Granny Smith. (Dec 2023)
