Franciacorta Extra Brut DOCG Animante Barone Pizzini

Barone Pizzini's Spumante Franciacorta Brut Animante comes from vineyards located in the municipalities of Provaglio d'Iseo and Passirano.

It is produced 78% with Chardonnay grapes, 18% with Pinot Noir and 4% with Pinot Blanc. The grapes undergo a soft pressing and ferment in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature. Subsequently the wine ages in the same containers for 6 months, and for further 18-30 months in bottle.

The Animante is characterized by a straw yellow color. The nose opens with a floral bouquet, enriched with pleasant fruity hints of citrus, acacia honey, apricot and dried fruit. On the palate it is fine, creamy and with a pleasantly savory finish.

Perfect to accompany aperitifs and fish dishes, it is ideal in combination with shellfish and crustaceans.
