In the vineyard:
Cuvée 22 is the result of the special selection of 22 Cru of Chardonnay grapes. Altitude, soil morphology, age of the vineyard, sun exposure, ripeness of the grapes are the main features to select the cru, with the aim to obtain the real expression of Franciacorta terroir. Our oenologists decide the specific treatment to use, thanks to the division of the vineyards in small cru: this philosophy permits the exultation of the characterizing features of each specific cru.
Winemaking :Each cru is vinified separately from the others. After the cold fermentation, each wine refines on the noble lees for 36 months. The blend is created with all cru by our chef-de-cave, who then follows also the refermentation, the contact with the yeasts and the final refinement process in bottle.
Varietal:100% Chardonnay
Tasting Notes :It expresses the typical Chardonnay notes of pineapple, peach and apricot with perfume of apple, acacia flowers and dried fruit. A fresh, velvety and soft sparkling wine.
Alcohol by volume: 12.50%
