Castello Bonomi Franciacorta Cruperdu Grande Annata Millesimato Extra Brut 2016
CruPerdu Grande Annata 2016 is one of the best vintages in Franciacorta in terms of quality. The limited production quantities allowed us to focus on creating a Franciacorta with great perspective. CruPerdu Grande Annata is made from Chardonnay (70%) and Pinot Noir (30%) of the same vintage. Only in the best vintages do the grapes of these two varietals achieve a particular
acid structure and sapidity, characteristics that are also found in the wine, giving it greater complexity and longevity. When these peculiarities are confirmed after at least 48 months on the lees, a limited number of bottles are selected and left to rest for another year before being sold.

Colour

Deep straw yellow.

Bouquet

On the nose, notes of white-fleshed fruit and tropical fruit stand out, which, with time, give way to balsamic sensations.

Flavour

On tasting it surprises with its structure and complexity, a rounded drinkability due to the many months of ageing with a tasty, dry finish. A Franciacorta that best expresses the tastiness, a typical characteristic of the Mount Orfano terroir.

Pairing

It is a classic method with structure, perfect to accompany an important meal. Excellent to try with fish dishes, such as spaghetti with prawns, confit tomatoes and lime.
