The wine region of Franciacorta
The Italian Champagne, the country's largest DOCG zone for classic-method sparklers. Fine, refined bubbles with signature notes of green apple, citrus, brioche, toasted almond and white flowers, taut and creamy finish (18 months minimum on lees, up to 60 for Riserva). Based on dominant Chardonnay, Pinot Noir for structure, Pinot Blanc for roundness. Satèn (low pressure, silky) and fruity rosé versions.
The wine region of Lombardia
Three poles. Franciacorta DOCG, Italy's answer to Champagne: elegant brioche traditional-method sparklers (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc), fine bubble and mineral profile. Alpine Valtellina: Nebbiolo (alias Chiavennasca) with fine tannins and red fruits, powerful Sforzato passito. Oltrepò Pavese: fresh Pinot Noir and fruity-sparkling Bonarda.
The word of the wine: Cornalin
Black grape variety native to the Valais (Switzerland). It produces renowned wines of a dark purple colour with violet hues, an elegant bouquet and a powerful, fresh, fruity (cherry) and spicy palate. Cornalin wines can be drunk young or after several years of ageing, with game.
