Vineyard and terroir
The Pinot Nero comes from the Bosco Basso vineyard in Capriolo, while the Chardonnay is sourced from several vineyards in Capriolo and Iseo.
Vinification
Before fermentation, the Pinot Nero undergoes a brief maceration in the press, with the juice remaining in contact with the skins to extract colour. Fermentation takes place in stainless-steel tanks. In the following spring, the wine is bottled for a slow secondary fermentation using the traditional Franciacorta method.
Ageing
The wine ages for at least two years following secondary fermentation. After disgorgement and the addition of an exceptionally dry liqueur de tirage, it matures in the cellar for several further months. The total ageing period is at least 36 months.
Tasting profile
Expressive aromas are followed by a rich and powerful yet elegant profile.
Serving and pairing
Serve in a bucket filled with water or ice.
