yellow, very transparent, fine and persistent perlage. The nose reveals
intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas which start with hints of
yeast, grapefruit and bread crust followed by aromas of acacia, banana,
hawthorn, pear, vanilla and mineral. 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 banana, grapefruit and pear. This Franciacorta ages in bottle on
its lees for 36 months.
