About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards lie across several parts of Franciacorta at 350 m above sea level. Most have a northern exposure and are influenced by Lake Iseo.

Grapes

The wine is made primarily from Pinot Noir.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness. Primary fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, with a short fermentation on the skins. Secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle using the traditional method.

Ageing

The wine ages on the lees for 24 months.

Tasting profile

The palate is lively, while the nose offers berry aromas with light citrus notes.

Serving and pairing

Pair with cold-meat appetizers or tomato-based dishes such as pizza and caprese.
