Corte Bianca

Essente Franciacorta DOCG Extra Brut

Essente shows notes of slightly under-ripe white and yellow fruit, hints of flowers: from acacia to citrus, with a light perception of magnolia grandiflora. Honeyed notes (acacia and linden), and a slight spicy/balsamic vein (mint and Greek basil) and dried fruit (hazelnut and almond). A final touch of toasted bread crust and vanilla-scented sweets with hints of citrus armalade (orange).
