The Franciacorta Brut Millesimato Secolo Novo di Le Marchesine has been produced from 100% Chardonnay grapes sourced from the company vineyard La Santissima in Gussago, in the Passirano area (BS). Following manual harvesting, carried out with a yield of 80 quintals per hectare, the bunches were whole-cluster pressed gently to obtain the must. The first alcoholic fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. After bottling, the inoculation of the "liqueur de tirage" (a blend of wine, sugars, yeasts, and mineral substances) allowed the sparkling process. This sumptuous effervescence matured in contact with the yeasts for a period of 54 months. The residual sugar content is 5 grams per liter.

FRANCIACORTA BRUT MILLESIMATO SECOLO NOVO LE MARCHESINE: TASTING NOTES

The Franciacorta Brut Millesimato Secolo Novo di Le Marchesine presents itself with a straw yellow color and greenish reflections enlivened by a fine perlage. On the nose, it bursts with aromas of ripe pear, linden, and elderflower combined with hints of balsamic herbs and delicate notes of marzipan and sweet spices. On the palate, it is intense and creamy, fresh and endowed with layered minerality that persists in the long finish of flint, camphor, and horseradish. At the table, it pairs well with cheeses and vegetarian dishes as well as with flavorful dishes based on fish, shellfish, and crustaceans.
