Arici Franciacorta Dosaggio Zero 2019

Franciacorta Dosaggio Zero, produced by Arici Andrea, a Lombardy excellence, 12.5% ABV, 2019 vintage. A Franciacorta born from the passion and dedication of Andrea Arici, who chose to produce zero-dosage wines to best express the terroir. The vineyards, located in Gussago, on the northern border of Franciacorta, enjoy a unique terroir, with active limestone that lends the wines remarkable minerality and salinity. Aged for 6 months in stainless steel on its fine lees before tirage, followed by bottle aging for at least 48 months. Dried fruit, bay leaves, chocolate, mountain hay, and stone are the notes perceived on the nose. On the palate, it is dry, bold, and precise, with a lovely freshness and liveliness and a remarkable persistence on a savory and mineral note.
