Tasting Notes

This prestigious Franciacorta DOCG represents the pinnacle of Italian winemaking excellence. Its modest 12% alcohol content favours freshness and drinkability. Crafted from Chardonnay 50%, Pinot Nero 50%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. A steady stream of fine bubbles supports a bright, refreshing palate. The fruit is sourced from vineyards from a single vineyard (Roccolo) with vines which are 20 years old.

A wine true to the meticulous Lombard approach to winemaking.
