Contadi Castaldi Blànc 2020 Franciacorta Extra Brut

A Franciacorta sparkling wine made from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from high-hill vineyards with an average age of over thirty years. It ages for at least 30 months on the lees, followed by at least 3 months after disgorgement. It is bright straw yellow with persistent, dynamic bubbles. The nose shows honeysuckle and broom, citrus fruit, toasted notes and chalky echoes. On the palate it is structured, fresh and varied, with palpable savouriness. It suits refined fish dishes, raw seafood and shellfish.
