Castello Bonomi Franciacorta Brut Millesimato CruPerdu 2020 is the estate’s flagship cuvée and the bottle that best expresses its identity in Franciacorta. Made from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it combines elegance, finesse, and a distinctly Italian sense of place, with the added prestige of coming from one of Lombardy’s most respected sparkling wine producers.
Tasting Notes
Pale straw yellow in the glass with a fine, persistent mousse and a polished, luminous appearance. The bouquet is refined and expressive, with notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers, and subtle brioche accents that hint at its time on the lees.
On the palate, it is crisp and precise, with fresh acidity, creamy texture, and a clean, mineral-driven finish. The Chardonnay brings brightness and finesse, while the Pinot Noir adds structure and depth. Best enjoyed now for its vibrant energy, though it has the balance to develop beautifully over the next few years.
Production
CruPerdu comes from Castello Bonomi’s estate vineyards in Franciacorta, where the terroir benefits from the cooling influence of the surrounding hills and the well-drained soils that help preserve freshness and aromatic detail. The 2020 vintage is crafted from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with careful hand harvesting to protect fruit quality and preserve purity. Vinification follows the traditional method, with secondary fermentation in bottle and extended lees aging to build complexity, texture, and fine mousse.
Food & Serving
Serve chilled at 6–8°C. This Franciacorta is a versatile match for oysters, seafood crudo, grilled prawns, risotto, sushi, and delicate white meats, but it is equally suited to aperitivo service with aged cheese and light savory pastries. Decanting is not recommended; instead, open gently and serve in tulip-shaped sparkling wine glasses to highlight its aromatic precision.
Producer
Castello Bonomi is a notable family-run estate in Franciacorta, recognized for producing wines that reflect both the character of the region and a commitment to quality. The estate has earned a strong reputation for elegant, terroir-driven sparkling wines, and CruPerdu stands as its signature wine and most popular expression. Its status as the house flagship has made it an important reference point for the producer and a well-regarded name in Lombardy’s sparkling wine scene.
