A homemade liqueur that was popular in the countryside after the war, now re-proposed with an exceptional result!
Franciacorta Esus millesimato Brut
The enveloping coat
The very long evolution leads to a deep, shiny, golden color, where the effervescence is so subtle as to be almost imperceptible. It literally explodes on the nose; difficult to contain all the aromas. It ranges from the ripe sweetness of exotic fruit to smoky notes; reminiscent of toasted and salted nuts, peanut butter, hazelnut cream, soft butter, sometimes salted caramel and gianduja chocolate; there is no shortage of sweet spices. When it arrives on the palate it makes a clean sweep, it is full, powerful, but not intrusive, it expresses great salinity and freshness, the persistence is very pronounced, in the finish of excellent elegance it takes up the toasted and processed nuts characters that the nose has exalted.
Vine varieties used: 100% Chardonnay.
Selection of the grapes: in the vineyard with manual harvesting in boxes of a maximum of 18 kg.
Vinification in white in a pneumatic press with soft pressing of the whole grapes, using only the 1st fraction. After static and physical separation from the impurities of the must at low temperatures, the inoculation of selected yeasts for fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. This is followed by racking and lowering of the temperature to around 10°C to avoid malolactic fermentation. Once the "draught syrup" has been added, it is bottled, capped with a crown cap and laid down in a pile for the second fermentation.
Refinement in the bottle: minimum 48 months.
Format: 75 cl bottle.
