Franciacorta Docg Brut - Bosio
Franciacorta Docg Brut - Bosio
The Bosio brothers' business card, the Franciacorta Brut, which appears in the glass as a straw yellow color with greenish reflections. On the nose a typical bouquet of floral scents, with notes of yellow-fleshed fruit and citrus fruits and yeasts, such as brioches and small pastries; on the palate it is decisive, fresh and complex, fine and persistent minerality. Finish with a light note of toasted almond and a pleasantly savoury aftertaste. Non-vintage Brut composed of 2 vintages, sugar dosage reduced to just 4 g/l to safeguard the character of the wine and the area of origin. The grapes are subjected to a soft pressing in order to obtain the separation of only the flower must that ferments in thermo-controlled stainless steel tanks, at a temperature of 15 °C; here the sparkling base obtained ages for 6-7 months. Excellent as an aperitif, first courses, white meats and fish. Superlative with a tartare.
Bosio
Located in Corte Franca, a few kilometers from Lake Iseo, the company extends over a total area of thirty hectares, entirely included in the important wine-growing area "Franciacorta DOCG". The primary objective of the Bosio Agricultural Company is the production of quality wines with the utmost respect for the environment. The vineyards currently in production occupy a surface area of twenty hectares and have a hilly position and variable exposure. The interpretation of these factors (soil, exposure, climate) in the choice of different vines allows for a diversified and quality production. In order to obtain a high-quality product, the Bosio Company has paid attention to the use of particular agronomic techniques, opting for an espalier system with high density, equal to 6,300 plants/hectare and with low production per vine, an essential compromise for producing quality grapes and therefore an excellent wine.
