Extra Brut Lucrezia Etichetta Nera DOCG
In the Vineyard
An exclusive Franciacorta made from Pinot Noir grapes. The cuvée is produced only in exceptional vintages when the maturity of the grapes reaches a balance that ensures longevity and perfect harmony.

In the Cellar
The grapes are gently pressed to extract only the flower must. Vinification occurs using cold techniques. The wine undergoes the first fermentation and after 8 months of resting on the lees, it is ready for blending and sparkling.
A long aging period on the lees is the key to its success, maturing for a minimum of 120 months before disgorgement. After disgorgement, it rests for an additional extended period to achieve perfect harmony.

Tasting Notes
Franciacorta Extra Brut Cuvée Lucrezia Etichetta Nera DOCG is a golden Franciacorta with coppery reflections. The foam is abundant with a fine and persistent perlage. It presents a nose of great rigor and intensity, extraordinarily elegant and complex, with notes of candied citrus fruits and fragrances of golden bread crust, hay, and chamomile.
The extremely characteristic mineral notes stand out on an important acidic structure. It is a highly expressive Franciacorta with an exceptional, long finish, featuring citrus notes that confirm its olfactory richness and provide fullness.
