Contadi Castaldi Franciacorta DOCG Brut Magnum 1,5 ℓ, Geschenketui

Contadi Castaldi's Franciacorta Brut comes from vineyards located in the heart of the Franciacorta DOCG. It is mainly produced with Chardonnay grapes and with Pinot Nero and Pinot Blanc grapes, harvested between the end of August and the beginning of September. The grapes undergo a soft pressing and ferment in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature for 20 days. Subsequently the wine ages for 7 months in stainless steel tanks and partly in barriques, before being bottled. This Franciacorta Brut is characterized by a straw yellow colour with greenish reflections. The nose opens with fresh hints of linden flowers, enriched by pleasant nuances of citrus fruits, peaches and green pepper. On the palate it is fresh, with a long and persistent finish. Perfect to accompany first courses, it is ideal in combination with fish and cold cuts.
