Description
What kind of wine is it
Nicola Gatta Blanc de Noirs Brut Nature 70 Lune is a Lombard Traditional Method sparkling wine that decisively expresses the rigorous character of Pinot Noir. The choice of zero dosage enhances a dry and linear structure, where freshness is combined with remarkable intensity. On the nose, it reveals fruity aromas with clear hints of citrus and pastry. On the palate, it is deep, offering a dynamic and rich sip that finishes with a distinct and persistent mineral tension.
Where does it come from
The grapes are grown on the limestone hills of Gussago, located on the edge of Franciacorta. The particular soil composition gives the wine a pronounced territorial identity. This geological matrix translates in the glass into a vibrant mineral drive and a sensation of absolute palate cleanliness. The terroir ensures a constant citrus freshness, defining a technical and rigorous sip that faithfully reflects its place of origin.
How is it produced
Organic production begins with a spontaneous fermentation carried out by indigenous yeasts, without the use of fining agents or stabilisers. After the prise de mousse through the Traditional Method, the wine undergoes a long ageing on the lees of about seventy months, enriched by a brief rest in wooden barrels. This evolution in the cellar, combined with the absence of dosage, ensures a pronounced structural complexity, balancing varietal aromas with palate volume.
History and Curiosities
This Blanc de Noirs Brut Nature by Nicola Gatta originates from the limestone hills of Gussago. Made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes, it displays a pronounced minerality thanks to spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts and the absence of added sulphites. The name refers to the long and patient ageing of 70 moons on the lees, enhanced by a brief passage in wood that releases elegant aromas of citrus and pastry. A refined organic sparkling wine with zero dosage, offering a fresh, rich and intensely flavoured sip: a perfect celebration of purity.

"I take my choices step by step: sometimes going forward, sometimes going backwards. My method is classic, but it wants to be a hymn to diversity. The principle is to enhance a territory that is different in nature and origin, with the aim of obtaining wines that represent it without compromise." (Nicola Gatta) Read more
