Franciacorta Barone Pizzini Rose Extra Brut Edizione 2013

An elegant vintage Franciacorta Rosé with fine, persistent bubbles and remarkable freshness. Aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry, red currant, pink grapefruit, and rose petals are complemented by notes of brioche and toasted bread from extended lees aging. The palate is vibrant and refined, offering crisp red berry fruit, citrus zest, mineral tension, and lively acidity. Complex yet graceful, it finishes long with lingering floral, berry, and pastry notes.

Food Pairing: Smoked salmon, tuna tartare, grilled prawns, roast chicken, and aged soft cheeses.

A blend of 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay, this vibrant sparkler offers fresh aromas of red berry and citrus. On the palate, a lively perlage underscores pomegranate, red grapefruit and a hint of baking spice. It's well balanced, with crisp acidity.
