Franciacorta Brut Docg

Franciacorta Brut is the soul of the company: it has been produced since our first steps. To create it we assemble grapes from 55 different vineyards located in 11 municipalities of Franciacorta.

The whole grapes are pressed with a pneumatic press, gently extracting the juice. During vinification, the must is separated into two fractions: free-run must, the best quality juice used for the production of Franciacorta; and second-press juice, which is not destined for bottling. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks at an average temperature of 16-18 °C. The base wine rests in vats until the spring following the harvest.

Pale yellow with fine steady bead and lingering aftertaste. Fine and persistent perlage, enriched with delicate notes of fruits, white flowers and nuts. Savoury, fresh and harmonious.
