Lo Sparviere Franciacorta Brut Millesimato Magnum 2014
Lo Sparviere Franciacorta Brut Millesimato (vintage-dated) is produced exclusively from Chardonnay grapes grown in Lo Sparviere’s historic estate vineyards in the communes of Monticelli and Provaglio d'Iseo. Its clay-silt soils impart a pronounced minerality, resulting in a wine that exhibits an admirable marriage of complexity and elegance, with a crisp, dry palate that shows fine fruit and earthy minerality.

Perlage

Long-lingering, of fine, pin-point bubbles.

Colour

Bright, straw yellow.

Bouquet

The biscuity initial impression gradually yields to smooth notes of acacia honey, candied fruit, and beeswax.

Flavour

Crisp, well balanced, and subtly citrusy. Impressive length.

Pairing

Aperitif wine or throughout the meal. Delicious with elaborate first courses, such as baked pastas and very creamy risottos; outstanding with raw seafood.
