February 8, 2022 - Nose of Creme Brûlée and lemon. Very complex. Tight bubbly. Crisp and silky. Electric lime mineralogy on the mid palate. Very bright Francicorta.
October 13, 2021 - Clear straw robe.
Profuse mousse, pinpoint perlage.
Brioche, rusk, almond, pear
Creamy texture, lemon, savory.
August 31, 2020 - 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.
October 11, 2019 - Not completely pure in the nose; taste is better and juicy. i think the wine needed a bit more air.
May 11, 2019 - 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.
September 3, 2018 - yeast nose with lemon, crisp
October 28, 2016 - meaty, mousse too hefty, not balanced.
July 30, 2016 - 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.
July 16, 2016 - Nice and refreshing. Bright acidity. Not a lot of complexity, but still a nice bubble for the price.
July 5, 2016 - 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
