The extraordinarily complex perfumes that are a vital part of this Franciacorta’s make-up are a major element, but not the only one, in determining the particular style that sets this Gran Cuvée apart from other, more traditional Bruts. In fact, more than 30% of the wines that make up this Gran Cuvée ferment and mature for over 7 months in small oak barrels and this factor contributes, together with other specially selected parcels of wine, in giving it a perfect all-round balance.

Grape varieties:
The grapes used are approximately 72% Chardonnay and 28% Pinot Nero.
