The NV Franciacorta '61 Brut Rosé represents a nicely balanced blend of 60% Pinot Nero and 40% Chardonnay aged in the bottle on the lees for 24 months. This is a delicate but festive wine that shows a steady succession of small berry, lilac and floral aromas. There's a refreshing kick of acidity on the close. Robert Parker

"You write Essence Brut and you read essence of Chardonnay. Only the best parcels, enriched with small additions of Pinot Noir vinified in white. Three years on yeasts in search of the right degree of complexity that exalts the elegance and pleasantness of the fruity and floral aromas characterising the "Antica Fratta style", without ever penalizing its pleasantness to drink. Very elegant as an aperitif, an eclectic wine to accompany meals and a highly refined break in a frenzied lifestyle." Wine Enthusiast

"A blend of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Noir, the 2014 Franciacorta Essence Brut (disgorged in February 2018) is a fine and delicate sparkling wine. The difficult 2014 vintage, which suffered from above average rain and cooler summer temperatures, is actually very well suited to this sparkling wine. That extra acidity and sharpness serves it well. Aromas include candied lemon peel, white peach and crushed mineral. The wine ages on its yeasts for 36 months. Its inside pressure is measured at five atmospheres, and this helps to drive the refreshing crispness and sharpness you get on the finish." Robert Parker
