€96.80
(€129.07 / L)
VAT included
DENOMINATION
Franciacorta Riserva.
GRAPE VARIETY
100% pure Pinot Noir.
VINEYARDS OF ORIGIN
3 Pinot Noir vineyards on the 'Belvedere' estate, located in the Municipality of Iseo, at an altitude of 466 metres above sea level, on the hills bordering the lake to the south.
AVERAGE YIELD PER HECTARE
6,400 kilograms of grapes, equivalent to 3,200 litres of wine (wine yield: 50%).
VINIFICATION AND PROCESSING
The Vintage Collection Dosage Zéro Noir is the result of careful selection of the Pinot Noir grapes, first in the vineyard and then in the cellar, and of skilful vinification carried
out with full respect for our know-how. The grapes, freshly harvested by hand in small crates, are traced by vineyard of origin and cooled. Each bunch is selected by expert
eyes and hands. The berry has a colourless pulp but a black skin: in order to create the base for Dosage Zero Noir, it is essential that the juice, the must extracted remains
white or slightly pink. This is why pressing is carried out strictly at low pressure, so that the skin remains intact and does not lose its colour. The must thus obtained
ferments in small oak barrels. In order to seek maximum aromatic complexity and expressive power, without losing elegance, the elevage in barrels lasts only 5 months. A
pair of flying tanks allows the wine to be transferred by gravity from the small barrels to the ageing tanks. Six months after the harvest, the three base wines from the three
vineyards of origin are blended so that the proportion between delicacy, nervousness, vinosity and aroma is optimal. The Pinot Noir imparts its complex aromas of red fruits
to the wine and gives it body, persistence in the mouth and longevity. The magic of its terroir, combined with the skills of the men, have resulted in a wine of exceptional
purity. To reach its maximum qualitative expression and to develop the characteristic aromatic profile that makes it unique, 8 years of ageing are required. A Franciacorta
rightly ennobled by the 'Riserva' classification. The dégorgement takes place in the absence of oxygen, using a unique system invented and patented by Ca' del Bosco.
This avoids oxidative shocks and further additions of sulphites. It makes our Franciacorta wines purer, more pleasant and longer-lived. So that this 'blanc de noir' can
express itself with great personality and convey the typicality of the terroir from which it was born, we have chosen not to add any liqueur at disgorgement. Each packaged
bottle is uniquely marked to ensure traceability.
