Description
Franciacorta Rosé Artio Brut Millesimato, a brut sparkling rosé from Lombardy, produced by Le Marchesine. 1.5L magnum, 2021 vintage. A Franciacorta born from the passion of the Biatta family, who have been producing excellent wines since 1985. The maceration is clearly evident on the nose, with the red grapes clearly expressing plum, cherry, and wild black fruits such as blueberry and mulberry. Typical vegetal and spicy notes emerge, along with hints of bark and musk, before finishing with fresher, citrusy notes. Sparkling perlage. Classic color, ranging from coral to light salmon. Balanced on the palate, with a delicate, dry nuance, acidity and savory flavors are well balanced by an enveloping alcohol content. The finish clearly reveals red fruit and berries, with a pleasant spiciness and hints of licorice.

| Production technique | Blank in pneumatic press with soft pressing of the whole grapes and separation of the 1st and 2nd fractions. The must of the Pinot Noir undergoes a light maceration for about 6 hours and is then blended with the Chardonnay. After static and physical separation from impurities in the must at low temperatures, selected yeasts are inoculated for fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. This is followed by racking and lowering the temperature to around 10 °C to avoid malolactic fermentation. Once the 'draught syrup' has been added, it is bottled, corked with the crown cork and laid down in the stack for frothing. |
