A blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir partially matured for six months in barriques. It was bottled in May 2011 and disgorged in June 2017 after 61 months on the lees to then age in the bottle for two years to enhance the beauty this Franciacorta can give. A straw-yellow color with luminous reflections and a fine effervescence. The aroma is fascinating and intense from the start with deep and wrapping notes of Mirabella flower, ripe white peach, golden delicious apple, apricot and candied citron. The mouthfeel is structured and elegant, its tapered muscles embrace you and lifts you off your feet in a waltz of freshness and vigor with a finish distinguished by an iodine salinity.
