This special cuvée is produced in limited quantities and is the result of very rigorous selection, making it a Gran Cuvée of absolutely outstanding quality. It is the first example of a Franciacorta produced by the very ancient technique of using “small barrels” in order to give full expression - interpreting them in a feminine style - to the Chardonnay grapes from the older vineyards with southerly exposure, lying high on the hillsides of the commune of Erbusco. The grapes used are 100% Chardonnay. Its mousse is abundant and creamy; the perlage is extremely fine and persistent. It has a straw yellow colour with faint golden highlights and reveals an intense, attractive and complex bouquet, redolent of peach blossom, honey and hazelnuts. A very feminine, gentle and graceful wine.
Its flavour is fresh and moreish. It is soft and delicate, and elegantly refined.
Serve at 6 °C (43 °F).
