Berlucchi '61 Nature Franciacorta Blanc de Blancs Dosaggio Zero 2016

Perlage

Abundant, creamy mousse; sinuous, slender bead; and subtle, long-lingering crown at the rim.

Colour

Intense straw-yellow edged with antique-gold highlights.

Bouquet

Dense and emphatic bouquet, with generous lime blossom, peach and apricot, and evolved impressions of fresh-baked petits fours.

Flavour

A vivacious acidity bolsters a finely-sculpted, emphatic structure, and an energy-laden, richly-flavoured finish provides a tangy, sensory tension.

Pairing

This vintage-dated Millesimato can be enjoyed throughout a meal. It will be at its best partnered with elaborate aperitif assortments, seafood, and risottos; with main courses of fish, poultry, and veal, as well as medium-aged cheeses.
