Tasting notes

Golden straw with a fine, persistent bead. Precise and refined on the nose, with the depth that long lees ageing brings. The palate combines power and elegance, with lively acidity, a dry Extra Brut profile (4.5 g/l) and a long, complex finish.

About this wine

Antica Fratta is a historic winery in Monticelli Brusati, in the heart of Franciacorta, whose underground galleries were carved into the rock in 1850.

Essénce Noir is a blanc de noirs made from pure Pinot Noir from the best plots in Monticelli Brusati. Only the first fraction of the pressing is used, with a yield of no more than 30%. Fermentation takes place entirely in steel, the finest lots then rest six months in French oak barrels, and the wine ages a minimum of 50 months on the lees in bottle.

Powerful yet elegant, it is a vintage Franciacorta with excellent ageing potential.
