Franciacorta DOCG NobleNoir originates in the heart of the beautiful wine region of Brescia, one of the most renowned in Italy. The municipality of Gussago, with its historic winemaking tradition and picturesque landscapes, is the beating heart of this excellent production. NobleNoir is a Blanc de Noir Brut, a white sparkling wine made exclusively from black grapes. In this case, it is the very noble Pinot Noir, a grape variety known for its complexity and versatility that is perfectly suited to the climatic conditions of Franciacorta. Pinot Noir gives the finished wine a solid structure, a rich aromatic range and a good capacity for ageing. Castello di Gussago, with its organically certified vineyards, guarantees sustainable and environmentally friendly production, enhancing the natural qualities of the grapes. Harvested by hand at the perfect degree of ripeness and placed in 18 kg crates to preserve their integrity during transport to the winery, the grapes, once in the cellar, are immediately subjected to a soft and progressive pressing. This makes it possible to extract the flower must to be sent to alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. In the spring following the harvest, the base wine is then bottled and left in contact with the yeasts for at least 24 months. After disgorging, the bottles rest in the cellar for a further 5 months, allowing for further maturation and harmonisation of flavours. White gold in colour with light straw reflections, brilliant and crystalline, the NobleNoir has a fine, elegant and persistent perlage. The nose is complex and assertive, with delicate fresh fruit and mineral notes, followed by hints of acacia honey and dried fruit. In the mouth, finally, the Pinot Noir expresses itself to the full, offering a good structure, with a creaminess balanced by a fresh and persistent finish.
