About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from vineyards across 19 municipalities in Franciacorta.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested from mid-August to early September. Pinot Noir macerates on its skins for several hours before fermentation in steel vats; this skin contact contributes colour and a distinctive aroma. In the following spring, the cuvée undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle.

Ageing

The wine rests on its lees for at least 24 months, followed by a further two months after disgorgement.

Tasting profile

Elegant and lively, with bright berry and fruit notes on both the nose and palate.

Serving and pairing

Suitable as an aperitif.
