Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
The wine shows a brilliant 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 yeast
and hazelnut followed by aromas of banana, pineapple, hawthorn, grapefruit,
plum, apple, honey and bread crust. The mouth has good correspondence to
the nose, an effervescent and crisp attack, however balanced by alcohol,
good body, intense flavors, agreeable. The finish is persistent with
flavors of plum, grapefruit and hazelnut. This Franciacorta ages in bottle
on its lees for 24 months.

Un Franciacorta "classico" che fa sempre piacere degustare. Bel naso di "Chardonnay" dove si coglie pienamente la banana e un lievito piacevolissimo. E poi anche frutta esotica. Gusto perfettamente bilanciato e giocato fra la morbidezza e le bollicine con buonissima persistenza.
