About this wine
A still Chardonnay from 1701 Franciacorta, fermented with indigenous yeast in amphora with full malolactic fermentation, a step outside the estate's sparkling comfort zone and into something unexpectedly mineral and textural.
Give it 15 minutes to open up in the glass.
Tasting notes
Light in structure but not slight in character. Stone fruit on the nose with a strong mineral finish that reflects the moraine soils of glacial deposit. Balanced and supported by good acidity. Amphora ageing adds texture without oxidation. An interesting white from a house better known for bubbles.
Goes with
Aperitif, tuna or seabass carpaccio, prosciutto crudo, fresh cheeses, sushi, and sashimi.
