Franciacorta DOCG Blanc 2018 - Contadi Castaldi
€27.45
VAT included
A fascinating sip melted into a dynamic perlage that translates the essence of the material into refined elegance, whose interpretation key remains the full structure in a paradigm of unprecedented rationality, the nerve center of freshness and pungent minerality. Weavings of impalpable chalkiness, puffs of face powder, yellow citrus fruits, almond, salt, broom and honeysuckle, can be read as tension and depth, an authentic chalice, gastronomic free thought. The grace of the sip is the essential stylistic figure, of which the biting vertical development in an author's palate is surprising.
