|
| Vinification: The hand-picked grapes are chilled in a cold room and selected before whole-bunch pressing. Alcoholic fermentation is in temperature-controlled steel tanks. 7 months ageing and then blended with reserve wines from the best vintages (20-30%). 28 months of refinement on yeasts before this wine is ready to express all its richness and identity. |
Vinification: The base wines are obtained exclusively from first-pressing
musts. Alcoholic fermentation takes place only in small oak casks. The wine
remains on its lees for 6 months, during which malolactic fermentation is
completed. Meticulous vinification and very lengthy bottle refinement,
at least seven years on yeasts. This is how a great wine is created.

CHARDONNAY 2009 DOC |
Italian White Wine
Grape Varieties:
Chardonnay 100%
|
|
| Vinification: Separate fermentation of Pinot Nero and Chardonnay grapes.
The must is separated from the skins to be fermented in small oak casks
and steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Aged 30 months on the less in
underground cellars.
|
Vinification: Only the best must from the first fraction is transferred for
alcoholic fermentation in small oak casks. The wine remains on its own
lees for 9 months, during which malolactic fermentation is completed.
Batonnage', or lees stirring, is carried out every week to bring the wine to
a peak of harmony on the nose and complexity on the palate.

Wine
Description:
TRANSITION. More than a color, pink is like a suspended mood, a delicate transition from white to red in shades never quite one or the other.
|
The rosé color is obtained after brief maceration of red Pinot Nero, and then a delicate blending with Chardonnay and slow, patient maturation.
|
|
|
Pleasant and floral nose. |
|
|
P: Full-body and round. The ideal Franciacorta for momentous occasions, especially the most romantic one! |
|
Wine
Description:
APTITUDE. Chardonnay, a white grape of French origin, is the most famous
international variety because it gives its best wherever, retaining features that
make it recognizable. Right from the first vintage, this wine was praised by
international critics who continue to consider it a reference for the finest
Italian enology.
|
|
Bright golden yellow. |
|
|
Intensely scented, underscored with a hint of vanilla and a characteristic note of hazelnut. |
|
|
Its taste is full and round and its organoleptic structure is so intense as to be
comparable to a red, yet it lingers in your senses for its extraordinary finesse.

Description:
"Challenge. Pinot Nero is the bane and
delight of the greatest grape growers in the world: hard to
cultivate, it needs special care and is a rarity expressing all its
greatness only in certain places in certain years. Ca' del Bosco
took up the challenge and since 1983 has been making this
world-class Pinot Nero, a synthesis of the terroir's extraordinary
vocation.
