Franciacorta Brut Nature Riserva Noir 2012
“Toasted bread crust, botanical herb and citrus zest aromas take shape in the glass. Bone-dry but complex, the palate shows both structure and finesse, delivering ripe white stone fruit, unsweetened orange drop and hazelnut before a tangy saline close. A silky perlage provides an almost creamy texture. It cries out for food and could accompany the whole meal. 13% abv.”
