The Franciacorta Extra Brut Comarì del Salem Millesimato di Uberti was produced from Chardonnay grapes (80%) and Pinot Bianco (20%) grown in the Salem area, a famous cru in the municipality of Erbusco (BS). The vineyard of origin, named Comarì vineyard, consists of vines over 50 years old rooted in hilly soils of morainic origin rich in skeleton and minerals. In the winemaking process, alcoholic fermentation took place partly in French oak barrels of 2.25 hectoliters and partly in stainless steel. The second fermentation, according to the Classic Method, took place in the bottle where the wine remained in contact with the yeasts for over 60 months. Before being commercialized, the Franciacorta Extra Brut Comarì del Salem Millesimato di Uberti was aged for 6 months in the bottle.
FRANCIACORTA EXTRA BRUT COMARÌ DEL SALEM MILLESIMATO DI UBERTI: TASTING NOTES
The Franciacorta Extra Brut Comarì del Salem Millesimato di Uberti presents a lively straw-yellow color with a fine perlage. On the nose, it expresses aromas of ripe yellow flesh fruit intertwined with woody hints and evolved notes of toasted dried fruit and pastry. On the palate, it is soft and harmonious, exalted by an elegant freshness and a gentle minerality that lingers in the long finish. It pairs well with semi-aged cheeses as well as vegetarian dishes and succulent seafood recipes based on white fish, shellfish, and crustaceans.
