Franciacorta Brut Cuvée 22

Franciacorta Brut Cuvée 22

In the vineyard

Cuvée 22 Brut is born from a special selection of grapes from 22 estate cru sites of Chardonnay, chosen based on altitude, soil morphology, vineyard age, sun exposure, and optimal grape ripening time. The objective is to obtain a Franciacorta wine that expresses pleasantness, notable drinkability, and encompasses all the typical characteristics of the terroir.

In the Cellar

The vinification of the 22 crus is carried out individually to create optimal conditions for each batch. Cold fermentation is employed, and the wines remain on the lees, constantly monitored. The blending process is meticulously done by the Chef de Cave, incorporating all the crus. It is followed by bottle aging for over 24 months.

Tasting Notes

Cuvée 22 expresses the typical notes of Chardonnay, with flavors of fruit such as pineapple, peach, and apricot, accompanied by aromas of apple, acacia flowers, and dried fruit. It is a fresh, soft, and silky wine with a lingering aftertaste that recalls the sensations perceived on the nose.

Plus

The wine is ready to be enjoyed and, when properly stored, it maintains and even improves its quality over time. Cuvée 22 aspires to hold a special place among our Franciacorta wines and is the result of a challenge undertaken by our Chef de Cave, Luigi Bersini.

Pairings

Cuvée 22 is excellent as an aperitif but also pairs well with various dishes. It is perfect with seafood dishes such as grilled shrimp or baked sea bass. It is also worth trying with summer vegetable-based dishes.
