Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
This Franciacorta shows a pale golden yellow color and nuances of golden
yellow, very transparent, fine and persistent perlage. The nose reveals
intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas which start with hints of bread
crust and yeast followed by aromas of banana, hawthorn, orange, hazelnut,
grapefruit, praline, apple and plum. In the mouth has good correspondence
to the nose, a crisp and effervescent attack, however balanced by alcohol,
good body, intense flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of
grapefruit, banana and plum. This Franciacorta ages on its lees for 24
months.
