Franciacorta Extra Brut Molenèr shows a pale straw yellow color and nuances of straw yellow, fine and persistent perlage, very transparent. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas which start with hints of apple, pear and banana followed by aromas of yeast, bread crust, hawthorn, butter, praline, tangerine and vanilla. 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 apple, pear and banana. Franciacorta Extra Brut Molenèr referments in bottle on its lees for 60 months.
