An authentic Blanc de Noir made from only Pinot Noir that maintains its complexity, freshness and fruitiness in a wine that Arturo Ziliani believes in greatly. Some of the grapes are allowed to macerate on the skins to give the wine its color but are pressed using a system that does not crush the skins too much. The must is then blended equally with Pinot Noir fermented off the skins. A clear, pink color and fine effervescence with aromas of medlar, pomegranate and hibiscus tea. The mouthfeel is structured and full-bodied with flavors of black tea and pulpy black cherry with nuances of medicinal herbs.
