| Vinification |
Ca' del Bosco's Franciacorta Millesimati are obtained from the selection of the best grapes from the company's 'historic' vineyards, which are over 29 years old. The base wines are obtained exclusively through the alcoholic fermentation of first-portion must (about 45% of grape weight), which takes place in temperature-controlled steel vats and, for some batches, in small oak barrels. After waiting at least 8 months to allow the wine to refine and clarify, each cuvée is created. The Brut Millesimato cuvée is the result of a skilful blend of base wines of Chardonnay (55%), Pinot Bianco (15%) and Pinot Nero (30%) that give the finished product a particular profile, rich and complex, further strengthened by a long bottle ageing in underground cellars at a constant temperature of 12°C. |
