Le Marchesine Franciacorta Blanc de Noirs Nodens Extra Brut 2018

Le Marchesine Franciacorta Blanc de Noirs Nodens Extra Brut 2018 is a refined vintage sparkling wine made exclusively from Pinot Noir in Lombardy’s Franciacorta region. With its exceptionally fine, persistent bubbles, pale copper-tinged colour and Extra Brut style, it offers a distinctive expression of the Biatta family’s winemaking tradition, which dates back to 1835.

Tasting Notes
Bright and delicate in appearance, the wine shows a light rosé hue with attractive copper reflections and a remarkably fine, persistent perlage. The bouquet is expressive and elegant, combining red berries such as raspberry and blackberry with mineral nuances and subtle hints of chocolate. On the palate, it is lively and well structured, balancing Pinot Noir’s depth with refreshing acidity and a dry, focused finish. The long, persistent character makes it particularly compelling at the table. It can be enjoyed now for its freshness and energy, while careful cellaring for several years should allow its texture and savoury complexity to develop further.

Production
This Franciacorta is produced in Lombardy from 100% Pinot Noir, a grape well suited to creating sparkling wines with structure and depth. As a vintage Franciacorta made in the traditional bottle-fermented style, it reflects the region’s focus on extended maturation and fine mousse, although specific details regarding vineyard sites, harvest methods and cellar ageing are not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C in a white wine or sparkling wine glass to preserve both its aromatic character and delicate perlage. Its dry, structured profile pairs beautifully with oysters, shellfish, smoked salmon, tuna, delicate charcuterie and fried seafood, while the red-fruit and mineral notes also complement roast poultry and soft, mature cheeses. Decanting is not recommended; instead, open carefully and allow the wine a few moments in the glass to reveal its full aromatic expression.
