TASTING NOTES

The Barone Pizzini company is located in Provaglio d'Iseo, and founded in 1870, it has been a reference point in the production of wines in Franciacorta since the beginning. It was the first production site in Franciacorta to be certified organic according to European regulations in 1998. A far-sighted choice that certifies the willingness of this company to promote viticulture based on respect for and enhancement of biodiversity. As proof of this, every single plot of the 54 hectares owned by the company is vinified separately in order to always obtain wines with very specific characteristics, as each plot has its own soil, exposure and microclimate conditions. The same philosophy is adopted in the wine cellar where every room is designed and arranged to minimise environmental impact. Barone Pizzini's Franciacorta Rosé, a wine of extraordinary elegance and complexity, was born from the union of Pinot Noir (70 per cent) and Chardonnay (30 per cent) grapes. Following the harvest and soft pressing of the grapes, the first alcoholic fermentation starts in stainless steel tanks. For the production of the base wine, there is also an ageing phase consisting of a 6-month stay in stainless steel and a subsequent passage in barriques. Once ready, the second fermentation phase in the bottle can begin; it remains in contact with its own yeasts for 30 to 40 months. The colour is a light cherry, very bright, with an intense and very fine perlage. On the nose, fruit notes of berries, citrus fruits and cassis first emerge. On the palate, it is fresh, citrusy and juicy, with savoury nuances and great aromatic cleanliness that makes it very elegant and harmonious. It is these characteristics that make this Lombardy sparkling wine perfect for gastronomic pairings, perhaps during a romantic fish and shellfish based dinner. Read more Read less
THE WINERY

Barone Pizzini

Since 1870, Barone Pizzini has been the pioneer of Franciacorta in the quest for a pure wine, free of any residue other than natural. Sustainability has always characterised the management of the estate, which has become a perfect example of organic viticulture. Everything is managed to minimise environmental impact, maximising energy savings. Nourishment and plant protection are made only with substances of natural origin, and the architecture is designed to guarantee production that respects the environment. Barone Pizzini's land extends over 54 hectares, divided into 29 vineyards spread across Franciacorta. Each vineyard has its own characteristics, with an altitude of between 200 and 350 m above sea level, partially morainic soil, with some fluvioglacial deposition and different exposures. Of all the sparkling wines from Lombardy, the wines produced here also stand out thanks to the organic farming, which generates high-quality grapes that are very flavourful and have character. This is how the excellence of still and sparkling wines from this area is created. In fact, the winery boasts a solid tradition that can offer many of the area's typical wine varieties, such as Brut, Satén, Rosé and Dosaggio Zero, as well as Lombardy white wines such as Curtefranca. Name and address of producer/distributor: Barone Pizzini - Via S. Carlo, 14, 25050 Provaglio d'Iseo BS. Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
