Franciacorta DOCG Extra Brut - Il Canto delle Cicale - Le Cantorie

Franciacorta Extra Brut Il Canto delle Cicale presents a clear, restrained expression: fine bubbles, an elegant perlage and a vibrant freshness that supports the sip without weighing it down. On the nose delicate notes of white flowers and bread crust emerge, with a mineral hint and traces of white-fleshed fruit that always remain subtle; on the palate the acidity is well balanced, the structure dry and savory, the finish dry and pleasantly persistent. Overall the wine shows balance and precision more than breadth, ideal for those seeking a dry, gastronomic style.

It suits the aperitif with light seafood preparations, raw seafood dishes and oysters, but also holds up to fish-based first courses and delicate main courses; it is surprising with fresh or blue cheeses that are not overly salty. Serve chilled, in a flute or a not-too-wide coupe, to appreciate the texture of the bubbles; it is a versatile choice for a menu that calls for freshness and sapidity without excess.
