NV Cavalleri Brut Blanc de Blancs Nature Franciacorta DOCG - Regarded as Italy's finest sparkling wine, Franciacorta wines are produced by the classic method of Champagne, called methode champenoise, in which a second fermentation takes place in the bottle. Notably, the appellation produces only about 5% of the massive volumes produced annually in Champagne, with very little traveling beyond Italy. Fine, elegant mouthfeel, with fresh fruit flavours and an impressively persistent bead. Fresh cut lemon leads on to lychee, orange blossom, pineapple, brioche and crème brulée. Biodynamic. 12.5%

A refreshing wine, offering aromatic citrus, tropical fruit and white floral notes. Dry with a round mouthfeel, balanced by distinct purity and length. An excellent companion for seafood, white meat and vegetables. 13%
