Description

The Franciacorta Extra Brut Mill. DOCG - Boschedòr - MAGNUM from the Bosio winery is an excellent choice for connoisseurs seeking a high-quality sparkling wine. This Franciacorta is an emblematic example of Italian wine excellence. The MAGNUM bottle, with a capacity of 1.5 liters, ensures an impressive and prestigious presentation, perfect for important celebrations or as a refined gift.

Originating from the rich and green hills of Lombardy, specifically in the famous region of Franciacorta, this wine is the result of a meticulous selection of grapes, predominantly Chardonnay with a small addition of Pinot Noir. Its prolonged aging on the lees, which exceeds 30 months, enriches the flavor profile, giving the wine complexity and a remarkable creaminess on the palate.

Visually, the Franciacorta Extra Brut Mill. presents itself with a bright straw yellow color and fine, incessant perlage. On the nose, it offers a refined bouquet of citrus notes, delicate berries, along with hints of brioche and toasted almond due to the long aging on the lees. On the palate, it stands out for its perfect balance between lively acidity and a rich structure, with a persistent and elegant finish.

This wine is not only suitable for being enjoyed as an aperitif but also pairs wonderfully with refined fish dishes, light appetizers, and white meats. Its structure and finesse make it suitable for sipping in contemplation, allowing each sip to reveal the complexity and elegance that only a Franciacorta of this quality can offer.

Winery history

The Bovio family has been in La Morra for generations. In the 1950s and 1960s Alessandro Bovio farmed grapes on a small scale. In the 1970s Gianfranco renovated the winery, and in the following years the estate began selling Nebbiolo and Barolo. Since then the estate has expanded and modernized the winery, and management has gradually passed to the next generations.

Production philosophy

The winemaking approach is founded on respect for tradition and the land: each vineyard is vinified separately to express the characteristics of the individual cru, with artisanal care in the vineyard and cellar and aging in large casks where appropriate. Attention is focused on patience, precise management of the parcels and fidelity to the character of the Langhe.

Terroir and vineyards

Vineyards located in La Morra and partly in Castiglione Falletto, with estate crus designated as Annunziata, Rocchettevino, Parussi, Gattera and Arborina. The estate reports approximately ten hectares of vineyards distributed across the principal MGAs of the Langhe, with vinifications carried out separately by parcel.

Awards and recognitions

Bovio's wines have received high ratings from international critics: in particular, their Barolo expressions have earned high scores from James Suckling, Robert Parker and Wine Spectator across several vintages.
