Franciacorta Brut Nature ‘800 2016 (with own box)

Franciacorta ‘800 is a refined sparkling wine produced with only Chardonnay selected from an important vineyard with a high plant density on a layer of deep brown clay in the village of Gussago. The vineyard is managed with special precautions in compliance with organic farming and the harvest is rather early. Franciacorta '800 is a non-dosed and vintage blanc de blancs. It is a Franciacorta of a superior category, also subjected to prolonged aging on the lees in order to fascinate with its complexity and elegance.

The harvest is manual in small boxes. The grapes are gently pressed and the free-run must ferments in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature. The base wine ages for 6 months in steel and is subsequently added with yeasts and sugars for the second fermentation in the bottle according to traditional method. Aging on the lees is about 36 months.
