Description
The Franciacorta Extra Brut Millesimato Sylvó from Lo Sparviere is crafted from Chardonnay grown with the Sylvoz pruning method in the municipalities of Monticelli Brusati and Provaglio d’Iseo, on flinty and calcareous marl soils. The vineyards are located at 180 meters with a northwest exposure.
The grapes are cooled before soft pressing, obtaining 50% of the free-run must. Fermentation takes place in steel for 70% and in wood for 30%, with partial malolactic fermentation. The wine matures on the lees in the bottle for 60 months, with the addition of wine from previous vintages in the cuvée.
Bright straw yellow with golden reflections, with a fine and continuous perlage. The nose perceives ripe pineapple, white peach, dried fruit, and mountain honey. On the palate, it is mineral, full, and vibrant.
It pairs well with flavorful dishes such as cotechino, roast pork loin, or sushi.
