Contadi Castaldi - Top Italian Franciacorta Sparkling Wine

The name Contadi Castaldi is a synthesis of the millenary history of Franciacorta, as a characteristic feature of a land devoted to wine. The name Contadi Castaldi is a synthesis of the millenary history of Franciacorta, its 19 municipalities and their vocation for exceptional agriculture.

It is a lively brut, rich in fragrance, which prefers smoothness and an accessible sensory language, a balanced and versatile style. In the glass it has a straw yellow color with greenish reflections, animated by a fine and persistent perlage. The nose is fresh, with floral notes of lime, hints of citrus, white peach and green pepper. The mouth is taut and crunchy, fresh and vertical, savory, refined and with a very pleasant persistent finish.

Contadi Castaldi - Franciacorta D.O.C.G. Rosé - Pinot Noir - Luxury Limited Edition - 750 ml

It has a beautiful coral pink color, very bright, with a fine and persistent perlage. An original Franciacorta, with a modern style, thanks to a skilful use of pinot noir grapes. On the nose there are clear notes of berries, fresh rose petals, shades of apple and tropical fruit. In the mouth it is structured, clear and lively, savory and sensorially rhythmic. The finish is long and well balanced.
