Ferghettina Franciacorta Brut DOCG Magnum (1.5L)

A Franciacorta Brut from Ferghettina, made mainly from Chardonnay with Pinot Noir. Each vineyard is vinified separately and the wines are assembled into a cuvée the spring after harvest, then bottled for the second fermentation. It is an elegant, decisive sparkling wine and a good introduction to the house style. It suits aperitifs, soups, veloutés and seafood dishes. It is straw yellow with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose shows citrus notes, then white-fleshed fruit and bread crust, with traces of hazelnut and white flowers. The palate is fresh, decisive and long, with a fine persistent finish.
