Contadi Castaldi Dosaggio Zero 2020 Franciacorta DOCG

A Franciacorta sparkling wine made from a selection of Pinot Noir grown on a specific morainic soil, which gives the savoury character found in the glass. It is the most vertical, direct and bracing style in the Contadi Castaldi range, with great personality. Straw yellow with fine, persistent bubbles, it shows grapefruit, blackcurrant, walnut husk, bay leaf and green tobacco on the nose. The palate is modulated and precise, structured and savoury, with a lively rhythm and fresh acidity. It closes with a very clean, pleasantly persistent finish. It suits an aperitif, and also works with a margherita pizza.
