The Franciacorta Brut Spumante Milledì is born in vineyards located on the gentle slopes of Adro, in Franciacorta.
It is produced from 100% Chardonnay grapes, strictly hand-picked around mid-August. After pressing, only the free-run must is placed in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 16 - 18°C, separately for each vineyard. The following spring, the different wines obtained are blended into a cuvée and bottled for the secondary fermentation. Aging on the lees lasts a total of 36 months.
The Milledì is characterized by a straw-yellow color, with green and golden reflections, and a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose and palate, it presents fine and refined citrus notes, enriched by good and balanced minerality. Overall, it is a very elegant wine with a pleasant and long finish.
Perfect as an aperitif, it is ideal paired with appetizers and fish and shellfish dishes, both raw and cooked.
