Berlucchi '61 Franciacorta Nature Magnum 2015
Made from grapes from the best estate vineyards, it requires at least 5 years of ageing on its lees. Very elegant, it is dedicated to the most attentive connoisseurs, able to appreciate the nuances of the pure taste of Franciacorta without adding the liqueur d'expedition, in the rigorous Nature style. Its image, distinguished by the suggestion of the circle, the symbol of perfection, will make it the favourite of those who love refinement in all its forms.

Perlage

Fine and persistent with abundant creamy foam.

Colour

Deep straw yellow with slight antique gold hues.

Bouquet

Fine and elegant, characterised by an opening on notes of saffron followed by subtle citrus aromas of bergamot and candied citron, ripe yellow fruit and bread crust, and lightened by fresh touches of star anise on a flint base.

Flavour

On the palate, the wine is characterised by outstanding balance. The great structure, vivid acidity and persistent tasty finish combine dynamically and provide great personality.

Pairing

This wine enhances structured first courses and fresh stuffed pasta, stewed fish dishes, meat dishes and cheeses, including aged cheeses.
