product in the ‘Pietraluce’ selection. It is the most authentic
interpretation of the Franciacorta terroir, capable of maintaining
elegance and drinkability even in the most complex bubbles. The
grapes of a single vintage, harvested strictly by hand, are pressed
using a soft technique and only the first pressing, with the greatest
structure, is used for this product. It follows the fermentation at a
controlled temperature of 15°/16° degrees. Then It follows the period
of refinement in stainless steel tanks with «bâtonnage» interventions
and the secondary fermentation in the bottle which is expected at
the end of winter. The aging on the lees in never less than 36
months.
TASTING NOTES: Medium straw yellow colour. A frank, ample, enveloping bouquet,
with notes of apple that then evolve into gentle hints of saffron and
orange blossom. Extremely persistent, it is enriched with citrus
nuances. On the palate, it is fresh and vertical at first approach,
evolving into more complex scents reminiscent of ripe apple, dried
fruit and spices. An elegant almond note closes the long drink.
FOOD PAIRING: It is an extraordinary even when unaccompanied. During a meal it
pairs demanding dishes, especially fish dishes; for example a fish
soup. It expresses its best with slightly fatty first courses, white meats or
even mature cheeses.
