Fratelli Berlucchi 2010 Casa delle Colonne Brut Riserva (Franciacorta)
This gorgeous, radiant sparkler opens with enticing aromas of ripe orchard fruit, pressed wild flowers and cream-filled brioche. Elegantly sparkling, the bright palate delivers Golden Delicious apple, tangy lemon drop, Alpine herbs and minerals alongside tiny continuous bubbles. Fresh acidity brightens the rich flavors and lends impeccable balance. Kerin O’Keefe

Franciacorta for the Holidays Franciacorta is an ideal wine for many meals: from aperitifs to entrees, and from simple dishes to the most complex recipes. Its intense, straw-yellow color has golden highlights and a fine and persistent perlage. The bouquet is characteristic of bottle fermentation: hints of bread and yeast enriched with delicate notes of citrus and dried fruits such as almond, hazelnut, dried figs. The flavors are savory, fresh, fine and harmonious.
