Cesarini Sforza Aquila Reale Brut Riserva 2012
The highest-quality grapes have been grown in Maso Sette Fontane since 1734. Here Chardonnay enjoys the Brenta Dolomites and obtains unique characteristics, with a balance and personality that few vineyards can achieve: structure and elegance, strength and finesse. These characteristics can fully exalt themselves through the application of the classic method: a long and patient process where details and nuances take on great importance. The combination of the cultivation site, the variety's vocation and the experience and expertise of the winemakers - 3 generations of the same family - make the result quite unique. Aquila Reale comes from this terroir, the Cru of Cesarini Sforza.

Colour

Golden yellow.

Bouquet

The sweetness of the aromas is reminiscent of candied fruit, which accompanies even more rare and intense fragrances.

Flavour

The palate is certainly rich, but also surprisingly deep and salty. A sparkling wine of great personality: charming and elegant with a noble soul.

Pairing

Starters
Fish
Shellfish

Ageing The cuvée is made in late Spring, which will rest until the Summer awaiting the tirage. It is then the turn of the passing days, months and years to carry out that evolutionary miracle of fragrances, aromas and sensations, which along with a respectful disgorging and another 6 months in bottles before being put on the market, will be exalted in the glass.
