| Community Tasting Notes (average 86.7 pts. and median of 87 pts. in 29 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Barolo_Mike on 2/8/2022 & rated 91 points: Nose of Creme Brûlée and lemon. Very complex. Tight bubbly. Crisp and silky. Electric lime mineralogy on the mid palate. Very bright Francicorta. (625 views) | | | Tasted by LMArcher on 10/13/2021: Clear straw robe.
Profuse mousse, pinpoint perlage.
Brioche, rusk, almond, pear
Creamy texture, lemon, savory. (736 views) | | | Tasted by Zweder on 8/31/2020 & rated 85 points: Gang of 5 in Covid19 times; Champagne and sweet wines (@ RW): White and yellow fruits, ripe apples and nutmeg in the bouquet. On the palate a very mild bibbel with ripe apples and a lot of sweetness, low acidity and a short finish. (1243 views) | | | Tasted by FransS on 10/11/2019 & rated 87 points: Not completely pure in the nose; taste is better and juicy. i think the wine needed a bit more air. (1108 views) | | | Tasted by mxfnck on 5/11/2019 & rated 85 points: Pale yellow/green color. Medium sized, slow rising bubbles.
Modest aroma intensity. Lemon peel, green apple, some yeasty tones far in the distance. Unexpected herbal tones like cinnamon and ginger cookies.
Floral tones on the palate. Smooth but persistent acidity, almost like in home-made lemonade. Refreshing. Mellow, round-texture bubbles.
Everything is very rounded and mellow, perhaps a bit too mediocre to leave an impression. I expected more for the money. (1156 views) | | | Tasted by Tudz Drkl on 9/3/2018: yeast nose with lemon, crisp (518 views) | | | Tasted by FransS on 10/28/2016 & rated 85 points: meaty, mousse too hefty, not balanced. (2442 views) | | | Tasted by t_moderne on 7/30/2016 & rated 86 points: Pop and pour and served with food (grilled octopus and smoked potatoes, and tuna tartare at Marea).
Nice bubbles. nose of the sea and some brioche. Light flavors with a saline and lemon peel note. (2652 views) | | | Tasted by partylikeakennedy on 7/16/2016 & rated 88 points: Nice and refreshing. Bright acidity. Not a lot of complexity, but still a nice bubble for the price. (2683 views) | | | Tasted by olracx62 on 7/5/2016 & rated 87 points: plain Franciacorta with little monerality and plain taste. Balanced acidity and well executed but hard to remember. In a summer sunset over the terrace on the Duomo in a BCG aperitivo in Milan (2338 views) | | | Tasted by Thomas D. on 5/10/2015 & rated 88 points: magnum bottle, opened yesterday, very good.
"Deg 07/13 L.31891"
A bit more fatness than the Faccoli Extra Brut Magnum, tends towards a Saten. (2775 views) | | | Tasted by olracx62 on 12/5/2014 & rated 87 points: from a 375cl bottle.Flat franciacorta with litte emotions. Maybe because this bottle follows another Franciacorta bollicine (Barone Pizzini) able to leave a stronger footprint. Will surely shift to Barone Pizzini with a limited price difference (1477 views) | | | Tasted by olracx62 on 11/22/2014 & rated 88 points: from 375cl bottle. Poor bubbles at the opening, although they come back after some minutes. Nice minerality at the nose e a full franciacorta taste. Pleasant at a reasonable price. PD to celebrate (1358 views) | | | Tasted by LUIGISPINA on 11/19/2014 & rated 80 points: Sboccatura 2014 giallo Paglierino bolla regolare fruttato con sentore di mandorle (1073 views) | | | Tasted by olracx62 on 11/2/2014 & rated 88 points: from a 375cl bottle. Poor bubbles, but pleasant Franciacorta Bollicine with hints of minerality and aromatic taste from Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir although Chardonnay makes the most of it. Interesting QPR at 9eur (half bottle) not that easy to find- 88++ (1343 views) | | | Tasted by Massimo Alessandria on 3/27/2014: Anche se la sboccatura era vecchia (06/2009) il vino ne ha guadagnato in "buona" ossidazione e maturità. Al tavolo è volato in un attimo ... ++++ (1336 views) | | | Tasted by Jeffyboy on 3/11/2014 & rated 88 points: Beutifuly gold colour, rare bubbles. Noble with light reflexes. Nose: ripe pears, bit stuffy; plus sweet apples. Elegant. Taste: bit heavy. All over yeasty. Great texture. (1363 views) | | | Tasted by paolonardi on 2/7/2014 & rated 85 points: crosta di pane quasi bruciata, fiori bianchi e frutta bianca. La bocca è morbidissima, c'è molto zucchero. Vino bidimensionale, naso bruciato, bocca avvolgente. (1133 views) | | | Tasted by CamWheeler on 11/10/2013 & rated 88 points: Sydney Italian Wine Festival - Sparkling Masterclass (Sydney, Australia): Appealing nose, peach and pear with spice and mango. The sweet fruit shows on the palate as well, but it has good acidity to counter. Some more depth would be good but this was nice overall. (1550 views) | | | Tasted by henrygjeffreys on 7/17/2013: sweet-smelling, apples with brown sugar
very nice light bubbles, honey, apples
quite rich
some toastiness and length
clean, good
tastes like a very rich, ripe champagne. Lacking slightly in acidity so not one to keep. Good now
good value at £19.50 (1211 views) | | | Tasted by Jeffyboy on 7/29/2012 & rated 88 points: from only a few spots many fast bubbles were floating up. Cold colour - lemon. Very nice. Nose: nutty, quite dry, storng but bit one-dimensiional. taste: full, yeast cake, braed crust, very serious and old-fashioned. anyway - Very good in old champagne, classic style. (1321 views) | | | Tasted by wickedwax on 10/30/2011: Plentiful and fine bead of bubbles. Subtle aromas of pear, lemon, bay leaf, toast and yeast. Good acidity with a slight creaminess. Finishes with good mineral and toasty flavors. Wonderful sparkling wine that drinks as good as many NV Champagne.
