Franciacorta Cuvée N.7 DOCG Brut by Lo Sparviere is a sublime expression of the Lombardy terroir, known for producing some of the finest Italian sparkling wines. This particular cuvée comes from carefully selected grapes, primarily Chardonnay, with the addition of Pinot Nero, which adds complexity and depth to the blend.
The vinification follows the rigorous traditional Franciacorta method, with a second fermentation in the bottle followed by a maturation period on the lees that is not less than 24 months. This process gives Cuvée N.7 by Lo Sparviere an elegant texture and remarkable aromatic persistence.
On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of fresh fruit, such as peach and citrus, enriched by subtle notes of toasted bread and almond. On the palate, it is lively and fresh with a pleasant acidity. The fine perlage ensures a creamy sensation and a clean, refreshing finish.
This Franciacorta is excellent as an aperitif or to accompany light appetizers, seafood, and delicate chicken dishes. A true gem to discover for celebrating special occasions or to add a touch of elegance to everyday moments.
