In the glass, it displays an intense pink colour with a fine and persistent perlage. The bouquet offers notes of wild berries and cherry, enriched by hints of yeast and nuances of blood orange and pomegranate. On the palate, it is lively, characterised by a \u003cstrong\u003ecreamy and enveloping mousse\u003c\/strong\u003e. The Brut dosage balances the natural acidity, ensuring a structured and mineral sip, ideal to accompany shellfish, delicate risottos and white meats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from the nineteen municipalities of Franciacorta, a Lombardy region with a strong tradition of sparkling wine production. The presence of \u003cstrong\u003emorainic soils\u003c\/strong\u003e gives the wine a distinct mineral character and great structural finesse. The vines’ growing cycle benefits from a climate moderated by Lake Iseo and constantly ventilated by breezes from the Val Camonica. These conditions ensure the ideal ripening of the grapes, which are harvested between August and September. Strict management of \u003cstrong\u003elow yields\u003c\/strong\u003e in the vineyard concentrates the aromas and preserves the acidic tension, an essential element for excellent \u003cstrong\u003elongevity\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe process begins with gentle pressing of the grapes and alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. A decisive step is the \u003cstrong\u003ebrief skin maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e of the Pinot Noir, which imparts the characteristic colour and a pleasant vinosity to the wine. After the creation of the \u003cstrong\u003eblend\u003c\/strong\u003e in spring, refermentation takes place in the bottle according to the \u003cstrong\u003eTraditional Method\u003c\/strong\u003e. The prolonged \u003cstrong\u003eageing on the lees\u003c\/strong\u003e for at least twenty-four months gives aromatic complexity and depth of flavour. A period of \u003cstrong\u003erest after disgorgement\u003c\/strong\u003e completes the process, stabilising the final balance of the cuvée.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ‘61 line celebrates 1961, the year of Berlucchi’s first historic bottling, which marked the birth of excellence in \u003cstrong\u003eFranciacorta DOCG\u003c\/strong\u003e.
