Description
The Franciacorta Brut from Santa Lucia is a refined cuvée made from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, selected from 15 vineyards located in seven different municipalities in Franciacorta. The diversity of the soils and microclimates contributes to creating a balanced and elegant wine, an authentic expression of the territory.
The grapes are hand-harvested from the second week of August and carefully selected. After a soft pressing, fermentation takes place in stainless steel and used oak barrels, at a controlled temperature of 16°C. The base wines are vinified separately and then blended to create the cuvée. The wine then matures in the bottle on the lees for at least 18 months, developing complexity and finesse.
With a bright straw-yellow color, it presents a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it is delicately floral and fruity, with elegant notes of bread crust from the aging on the lees. The palate is balanced and harmonious, with pleasant freshness and refined persistence.
Perfect as an aperitif and ideal to accompany the entire meal.
