Extra Brut Franciacorta
Franciacorta
Extra Brut Millesimato 2021
After a careful zonation, we have picked-up our grapes in a smallparcel of our vineyard in Passirano.
There, the soil composition is completely different than the one around it. This soil is characterized by a very low PH, that guarantees our grapes a great minerality and more salinity.
Selection of our best grapes, solely hand-picked
100 % Chardonnay
Soft pressing of the grapes and must subdivisions (only the 30% is used for this typology of franciacorta). The fermentation is carried out at low temperatures for 14 days.
After that, the base wine ages for 7 months in stainless steel vats and for a part in barrique. The malolactic fermentation is not performed.
Ageing on the lees: 30 months
Nose: a beautiful complexity with hints of candied fruit, a fragrance of pastry and an almond ending.
Taste: freshness, sapidity and minerality are very well combined with a fine, elegant and persistent structure.
