“This single vineyard beauty is a particularly outstanding example of the quality one can find in Franciacorta wines. The nose offers fresh tangerine and lemon flesh with blended mineral notes, and emergent aromas of sliced peaches. On the palate there's tart peach and nectarine, and a noteworthy weight to the mouthfeel. Crushed white flowers and minerality provide further detail that lingers long on the finish. This wine develops very well with time in the glass, and still shows lovely details long after being poured. A complex and elegant experience. Aged 60 to 70 months in bottle on natural yeasts and named for the nearby river; the grapes come from the vineyard named Roccolo, which is farmed naturally. The winery was one of the first in the region to promote biodiversity and natural farming methods.”
