ABOUT THIS WINE
This zero-dosage, mthode champenoise sparkling wine is crafted from 100% Chardonnay grown on limestone-rich soils in Gussago, the easternmost part of Franciacorta. The 2020 vintage was marked by a steady growing season, allowing for optimal ripeness and the expression of pristine fruit.
Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged sur lie for 2436 months in bottle before disgorgement, the wine offers a tightly woven profile of orchard fruit, citrus, crushed stone, and almond blossom. The absence of dosage highlights the wines natural tension and mineral core, delivering exceptional clarity and drive.
Farming is organic and uncompromisingly natural, with no herbicides or pesticides. In the cellar, no fining, filtration, or additions (beyond minimal sulfur) are used, allowing the character of the terroir to speak clearly.
Food Pairings: Perfect alongside raw shellfish, crudo, delicate tempura, or aged goat cheeses. Its crisp edge and mineral depth also shine with creamy risottos or dishes laced with lemon and herbs.
