Franciacorta Brut DOCG – Cuvée 22 (BIO – Organic Certified)

Franciacorta Brut DOCG – Cuvée 22 (BIO – Organic Certified)

Organic elegance from 22 Chardonnay crus

In the Vineyard

Cuvée 22 is born from a meticulous selection of 22 Chardonnay crus, chosen for their altitude, soil composition, vineyard age, sun exposure, and grape ripeness—each contributing to the authentic expression of Franciacorta terroir. By vinifying each cru separately, our oenologists can highlight their distinctive character and ensure the highest quality.

In the Cellar

Each cru undergoes cold fermentation and refines on the noble lees. The final blend is crafted by our Chef de Cave Luigi Bersini, who also oversees the re-fermentation in bottle and the delicate maturation process. This philosophy enhances both freshness and complexity.

Tasting Notes

• Aroma: Pineapple, peach, apricot, apple, acacia flowers, and dried fruit

• Palate: Fresh, soft, and velvety, with vibrant balance and persistence

Food Pairing

A sparkling wine of great versatility:

• Excellent as an aperitif

• Ideal with fish-based dishes, such as grilled prawns or baked sea bass

• Delightful with vegetable-based summer dishes

Plus

Ready to enjoy immediately, but with proper storage it will continue to evolve and improve over time. Cuvée 22 represents a milestone among our Franciacortas, the result of Luigi Bersini’s passion and challenge.
