Since 1200 the name Franciacorta has been used to identify the small region formed by the morainic hills in the province of Brescia. Today the word Franciacorta no longer identifies only the Territory, but also the Wine or the noble Italian DOCG "bubbles", and the Method with which they are produced.
Cabochon is today a key label of the Monte Rossa company, born in 1987 from an intuition of Emanuele Rabotti who brought back to the cellar and vineyards all the experiences which he gained while traveling the world.
They are harvested manually and placed in crates, to then be gently pressed, for no more than 48% of the yield. Each cru is vinified alone. The fermentation of the musts takes place in 250-litre oak barrels between September and February; the duration of the refinement is over 48 months.
A production of only 3000 bottles for this extremely classy label. It is presented in the glass with a slightly golden yellow color with greenish reflections. Seduces the sense of smell with a large bouquet characterized by sweet floral scents of jasmine, chamomile and bergamot that blend well with the fruity nuances of snuffbox peach. It enters the palate with vehemence and a decisive crunchiness, a persistent sip with a citrus-floal return.
DoppioZero is an important Franciacorta Brut Nature with character to be savored during an aperitif, or in combination with dishes based on fish and shellfish, as well as not too mature cheeses.
