Aristodemo Leoncini, a renowned master of the art of making salted meats, started a small family business back in 1918 in the Province of Reggio Emilia. Today, the strictest ancient meat processing techniques are used, following age-old Emilian recipes that are jealously protected and handed down through the generations. This top quality shoulder is cooked in a steam oven, lightly smoked using exclusively a traditional wood-fired method and coated with spices and aromas to create the traditional flavor of porchetta.
The award winning Frantoia Extra Virgin Olive Oil is skillfully blended by Manfredi Barbera. The unique olive medley yields an oil with complexity and balance. Frantoia is fruity and mild on the palette, with a light pepper finish.
Tasting Notes: This Prosecco offers intense and fruity notes of golden apple, wisteria, honey, white acacia flowers, and elderberry. The palate echoes the bouquet's fresh orchard and floral notes and offers a medium-bodied, lush mid-palate. It reveals an outstanding balance of acidity, depth, and fullness but ends with a touch of dryness and minerality to add to its elegance.
Pairings: Ideal with sushi, risottos with herbs, rich baked chicken and fish dishes, and hearty cheeses like parmesan, asiago, and pecorino.
