Franciacorta Extra Brut DOCG BIO LO SPARVIERE

From vineyards aged between 15 and 20 years, facing northwest on marly soils, come the Chardonnay grapes that give rise to this Franciacorta Extra Brut from the Lo Sparviere winery. Manual harvesting takes place from the third ten days of August: the grapes are then placed in a refrigeration cell at a temperature of 4°C for 24-36 hours To promote better extraction of aromas, soft pressing of whole bunches and temperature-controlled fermentation follows. Bottle aging on yeast for 36 months.

Features of this Franciacorta Extra Brut

It features a fine, persistent perlage and a golden yellow color. The olfactory notes recall bread crust, hazelnut, candied fruit, and spices. On the palate it strikes for a perfect balance between flavour, typical cedar acidity and mineral hints.

Recommended pairings with this wine from the Lo Sparviere winery
