ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Franciacorta Nature Blanc de Blancs 61 Berlucchi is a Millesimato of great elegance and finesse, the result of a selection of grapes from different parcels of the estate and a long aging on the lees, which lasts for over 5 years. It is a Classic Method that expresses the best qualities of Chardonnay in purity, enhanced by the choice of a zero dosage and by the evolutionary notes typical of the noble Burgundy grape. It gives delicate, complex aromas, rich aromas, ranging from ripe yellow fruit to citrus notes, to the softness of pastry, always well balanced by a lively mineral freshness .
Nature Blanc de Blancs 61 is a Franciacorta that was born in one of the cellars that contributed most to the history of Franciacorta and which still today continues to be one of the most prestigious brands of the appellation. Berlucchi immediately established itself for the quality of its labels, always positioned among the best expressions of the territory. On the soft reliefs of the morainic hills south of Lake Iseo, Pinot Noir and above all Chardonnay express themselves on very interesting levels for the creation of sparkling bases. The possibility of being able to count on a vast park of vineyards in different areas of the territory and an extraordinary experience in the art of refermentation in the bottle, allow Berlucchi to offer a label of absolute excellence.
The Blanc de Blancs 61 from the famous Berlucchi winery is a Franciacorta Nature that expresses the excellence of a great 100% Chardonnay, particularly appreciated by those who love the Classic Method in its most refined and linear version. At the end of the harvest, the best grapes from different parcels are fermented in steel. Before the final blending, the base wines rest on the lees in barriques for about 6 months. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle according to the Classic Method, with a sur lattes period of at least 60 months. The color is light straw yellow with brilliant golden reflections. The nose opens with notes of white flowers, citrus fruits, ripe yellow fruit, hints of pastry and honey. On the palate it is rich and ample, with a particularly harmonious and long sip, which closes on a persistent finish, of remarkable freshness and sapidity. An unmissable Franciacorta for all enthusiasts.
