Its layered bouquet combines citrus, white peach and yellow apple with Mediterranean flowers, brioche, beeswax and a subtle balsamic nuance. As it opens, notes of toasted almond and delicate minerality add further complexity.\n\nThe palate is polished and harmonious, with a creamy texture balanced by lively acidity. Flavours of lemon, white-fleshed stone fruit and apple mingle with bread crust, toasted notes and a refined mineral freshness. Precise and beautifully structured, it finishes long, fresh and lightly saline, with lingering hints of citrus and brioche. Enjoy now for its poise and freshness, or cellar it for several years to allow its autolytic and mineral nuances to develop further.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced in Franciacorta according to the Metodo Classico tradition, Alma Assemblage 2 is based predominantly on Chardonnay, complemented by Pinot Nero and a small proportion of Pinot Bianco.
