Berlucchi ’61 Franciacorta Brut is a sparkling wine of extraordinary elegance and freshness, ideal for celebrating any convivial moment. Produced from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Nero grapes, this Metodo Classico features an alcohol content of 12.5% vol. In the glass, it stands out with a straw-yellow color with greenish reflections and an extremely fine perlage. The nose releases fragrant notes of white-fleshed fruit and citrus, enriched by hints of bread crust typical of its long aging on the lees. On the palate, it is harmonious, savory, and gifted with a lively acidity that makes it perfect as an aperitif or paired with seafood, shellfish, and delicate first courses.
