ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Berlucchi's Franciacorta Rosé Nature 61 is an elegant and refined Millesimato, made by one of the wineries that has always been a point of reference for all fans of the Brescian sparkling wine appellation. It is a classico cuvée, composed mainly of Pinot Noir with a good percentage of Chardonnay, which makes the blend more delicate. The long aging period on sui lieviti makes it possible to offer a rich and evolved Metodo Classico, with citrus and berry aromas, enhanced by spicy nuances. It is a label with a pleasantly gastronomic taste, ideal to enjoy at the table with shellfish.
Metodo Classico Rosé Nature 61 is a Franciacorta that is produced by one of the most illustrious names in Italian sparkling wine making. The winery was founded in 1955 by guido berlucchi, who, thanks to the valuable advice of oenologist Franco Ziliani, sensed the potential of the franciacorta territory. The beautiful sunny exposures, cool, ventilated climate and poor soils of ancient morainic origin offered ideal conditions for producing grapes destined for the elaboration of a quality Metodo classico. Today the winery manages about 500 hectares, but has retained the original care and passion in making great labels. The grapes for Rosé Nature 61 come from vines over 20 years old, grown in the Curte Franca municipality, in the hamlets: Ragnoli, Quindicipiò and Gaspa. The utmost care in the winery's processing allows for the production of an elegant Rosé with a strong personality.
The Millesimato Franciacorta Rosé Nature 61 from the Berlucchi winery is a Metodo Classico that well interprets this particular type, much appreciated by those who love intense, rich sparkling wines with good aromatic complexity. It is made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes, which, after a soft pressing, are vinified separately. The base wines rest a few months before final blending. Re-fermentation takes place in the bottle according to the Metodo classico, with a minimum of 60 months' rest on sui lieviti. In the glass, it has a clear and bright salmon pink color. The olfactory picture is characterized by aromas of citrus, pink grapefruit, white peach, small red berries and delicately spiced nuances. The palate has good structure, with a smooth, creamy mouthfeel and a fresh, harmonious finish.
