Barone Pizzini estate is a consistent, top quality Franciacorta producer. They have created a truly exceptional bubbly once more with the 2013 Brut Natura. Made without the addition of residual sugar, the Barone Pizzini 2013 Natura is pure, lively, dry and refreshing. It is a blend of the best Pinot Nero and Chardonnay wines from several vineyards. The finished wine is complex, exciting and delicious! The bouquet is pure and vibrant, with lemon, lime and green apple fruits underscored by hints of wildflowers, cream and subtle yeasty tones. The flavors resonate with juicy lime, lemon and green apple fruits enhanced by the subtle floral and yeasty components. It has a satisfying, creamy texture that allows the pure flavors to linger well at the dry finish.
