Description
Classic method brut sparkling wine from Lombardy, Franciacorta DOCG, produced by Lo Sparviere. 100% Chardonnay, 1.5L magnum format. A Franciacorta that celebrates the Italian sparkling wine tradition, with a fine and persistent perlage. From the vineyard, the small cases of Chardonnay are placed in a cold room overnight. The whole bunches are then pressed with a 60% yield. Fermentation is carried out slowly at 16°C to retain all the aromas. The base wine ages on the lees for approximately 7 months in stainless steel tanks, and the tirage for the secondary fermentation takes place in May. Aged for 30 months on the lees. Characteristic with notes of light honey, ripe fruit, including yellow peach, and buttery nuances typical of the Chardonnay grape, white dried fruit, especially almond, and hints of bread crust. Bright straw yellow with golden reflections. Savory, fresh, and mineral, balanced in expression, it lingers while expressing a distinctly soft structure. Perfect as an aperitif, but also ideal as an accompaniment to fish and white meat dishes.
