This Franciacorta shows a brilliant golden yellow color and nuanced of
straw yellow, very transparent, fine and persistent perlage. The nose
reveals intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas which start with hints
of hazelnut, bread crust and yeast followed by aromas of banana, hawthorn,
grapefruit, apple, plum, vanilla, honey and butter. 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 grapefruit, banana and hazelnut. This
Franciacorta ages in bottle on its lees for 48 months.
