A slight effervescence, or “vivace,” is achieved through a natural secondary fermentation, enhancing the wine’s refreshing qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eABV (Alcohol by Volume):\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003e Approximately 13%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e The 2020 Freisa Vivace presents a ruby-red color with floral and fruity aromas of concentrated berries and tar, complemented by hints of blackberry.
