Advice to enjoy this wine at its best.

Let’s talk about Franciacorta Riserva Brut Millesimato DOCG - Selezione 2011 - Villa

More questions

Produced mainly from Chardonnay grapes and a small percentage of Pinot Noir, the 2011 vintage benefited from optimal weather conditions that are reflected in the wine's balance and aromatic intensity. The prolonged aging on the lees for over 60 months gives this Franciacorta a rich and layered bouquet, where notes of ripe fruit, brioche, toasted almond, and hints of honey stand out. 

On the palate, the Franciacorta Riserva Brut Millesimato 2011 from Villa showcases an imposing yet harmonious structure, with a fine and persistent effervescence that caresses the palate. The acidity is well integrated, an element that promises excellent longevity and evolution over time.

It pairs splendidly with refined dishes such as salmon tartare or oysters, but is equally surprising with a simple appetizer. Its freshness and complexity make it a versatile companion for every type of palate. 

Serve at a temperature of 6-8°C to enhance all its nuances. A wine that not only guarantees a high-level tasting experience but also promises to astonish and delight with its majestic maturity and elegance.
