Franciacorta DOCG Blanc de Blanc Brut Derbusco Cives

Franciacorta DOCG Blanc de Blanc Brut is made by the Brescian winery Derbusco Cives . It is obtained from only 100% Chardonnay grape juice, in line with the typical Blanc de Blancs style. This international variety finds, on the hilly area near the river Oglio, an ideal environment to thrive. The plots are located near Erbusco, where the lands of morainic origin boast a rich composition of minerals. When they reach the optimal degree of ripeness, the healthiest bunches are selected manually. Once in the cellar, the grapes are left to ferment in steel tanks. According to the provisions of the Classic Method, the refermentation in the bottle coincides with the refinement on the lees which lasts for three years. The disgorgement is followed by the addition of a minimum percentage of dosing syrup. Franciacorta DOCG Blanc de Blanc Brut can be enjoyed immediately, as well as after 3 or 4 years.
