VINIFICATION AND REFINING The Franciacorta Vintage Collection are the result of a careful selection of the grapes and a skilful vinification carried out in full respect of the Ca ’del Bosco Method. The grapes, freshly picked by hand in small boxes, are classified and cooled. Each bunch is selected by expert eyes and hands, to then benefit from exclusive "spa baths". A particular system of washing and whirlpool of the bunches, through three soaking tanks and a drying tunnel. After crushing in the absence of oxygen, all the musts of the base wines ferment in small oak barrels for a period of 5 months. A pair of flying tanks allows the transfer of wines by gravity, from small barrels to aging tanks. After 7 months from the harvest, the cuvée is created. The Vintage Collection Brut is the result of a skilful combination of base wines of Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco and Pinot Nero which give the finished product a particular profile, pure and sincere, the result of the best expression of the terroir and of the man who sensed it character and potential. The dégorgement takes place in the absence of oxygen, using a system that is unique in the world, designed and patented by Ca ’del Bosco. This avoids oxidative shocks and further addition of sulfites. Aging on the lees for at least 48 months

A PIECE OF ADVICE… Perfect as an aperitif to accompany fish appetizers, mixed canapés, tempura fried vegetables. A convivial wine to be enjoyed with friends or throughout the meal
