Essence Noir

In the second half of the nineteenth century the winery in the fratta district of Monticelli Brusati in the province of Brescia was already well known, and it was then that the cav. Luigi Rossetti renovated an old farmhouse and made it his home and the seat of his thriving wine trade. The wonderful cellars behind the villa were dug out of the living rock, and when the Antica Fratta winery was born in 1979 they were restored and brought to their original and original splendor. We are in the heart of Franciacorta and after more than 40 years Antica Fratta continues to produce extraordinary wines in the homeland of Italian bubbles, respecting the rigorous disciplinary and exalting the quality in each label. Each bottle represents a small luxury that anyone can afford by making their daily lives special.

The best Pinot Noir grapes of Essence Noir Millésime 2015 are carefully selected at the end of September, once the perfect sugar maturation is reached, while retaining a good dose of acidity and freshness. White vinification contributes to the well-structured body of this Franciacorta, whose aging on the lees lasts 42 months, and after disgorgement it’s refined in the bottle for another 6 months. Ideal with meat-based dishes with a robust flavor, as well tasty fish.
