1701 Franciacorta Brut Nature is a refined expression of Franciacorta, bringing together the structural elegance of Chardonnay and the character of Pinot Noir in a finely balanced sparkling wine. Crafted in Lombardy, it reflects both the precision of traditional winemaking and the quality of exceptional raw materials, making it a standout choice for lovers of dry, mineral-driven bubbles.
Tasting Notes
Pale straw in the glass with a lively, persistent mousse, it shows a bright and elegant profile from the outset. The nose is fresh and expressive, with notes that suggest citrus, green apple, and subtle brioche-like nuance, supported by a clean mineral edge.
On the palate, the wine is dry, focused, and beautifully structured, with a full, rounded texture lifted by marked acidity. The finish is crisp and precise, leaving a refined impression of freshness and balance. While approachable now, it also has enough structure to develop gracefully over the medium term.
Production
Produced in Lombardy within the Franciacorta appellation, this wine benefits from the region’s cool climate and mineral-rich soils, which help preserve freshness and aromatic clarity. Chardonnay brings elegance and structure, while Pinot Noir contributes depth and personality. The Brut Nature style indicates very low dosage, allowing the purity of the fruit and the character of the terroir to come through clearly.
Food & Serving
Ideal with oysters, shellfish, sashimi, light seafood dishes, or simply as an aperitif, this Franciacorta also pairs well with delicate white meats and fresh cheeses. Serve well chilled at around 6–8°C to highlight its freshness and finesse. Decanting is not necessary.
