Luca Gardini

Nose of fruit with green pulp, kiwi, with a closure with tones of medicinal herbs, thyme in the head. Tense, crunchy mouth, with a return of the vegetable part on the finish.

Franciacorta Brut di Barbalonga comes from vineyards located on the slopes of Monte Orfano, in the Brescia municipality of Rovato.

It is mainly produced with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand from the second decade of August to the first of September. After the classic vinification processes, the second fermentation takes place by refermentation in the bottle, according to the Classic Method, with aging for at least 24 months on its lees.

Franciacorta Brut di Barbalonga is characterized by a golden yellow color, an abundant foam and a fine and persistent perlage. The nose opens with fragrant aromas of dried fruit on a characteristic background of bread crust. On the palate it is soft and intense, with hints of tropical fruit.

Ideal in combination with risotto and white meats, this Brut is perfect to accompany all fish dishes and shellfish.
