Ca' del Bosco Franciacorta Annamaria Clementi Dosage Zero Riserva 2017

Ca’ del Bosco Franciacorta Annamaria Clementi Dosage Zero Riserva 2017 is a prestigious sparkling wine made exclusively in outstanding vintages. Produced by the traditional method from Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir, it expresses the refined character of Franciacorta through a pure, bone-dry style with no final dosage. The cuvée honours Annamaria Clementi, the founder of Ca’ del Bosco, and is drawn from the estate’s ten finest crus.

Tasting Notes
The wine opens with an exceptionally fine, persistent perlage and an elegant, refined expression. Its bouquet combines ripe yellow fruit with mango, candied citrus and pronounced mineral nuances. On the palate, it is lively yet supple, supported by saline freshness and remarkable balance. The long lees ageing lends depth and complexity, while the absence of dosage preserves a dry, precise and energetic finish. This is a wine with excellent ageing potential. Its concentration, freshness and extended maturation on the lees allow it to develop further complexity in bottle, provided it is stored in cool, dark and stable conditions.

Production
The grapes are selected from ten of Ca’ del Bosco’s finest vineyard crus in Erbusco, in the heart of Franciacorta. The first fraction of the must is fermented in small oak barrels for approximately seven months, creating the foundation for the final cuvée. The wine then undergoes a second fermentation in bottle according to the traditional method and rests on its lees for around seven years in temperature-controlled cellars. No final dosage is added, preserving the wine’s natural dryness, mineral character and pronounced length.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C in a tulip-shaped sparkling-wine glass to highlight its fine aromas and texture. Its saline freshness and elegant structure make it a natural partner for seafood, shellfish, delicate fish dishes, oysters and mature or refined cheeses. Decanting is not normally necessary, although allowing the wine a few minutes in the glass can reveal additional layers of fruit and mineral complexity.
