This is the La Casuccia CdA which wasn’t in the Delectable lineup - my third favorite of the CdA dinner - see the Montebuoni and Bellavista notes. Note that we also tasted the ‘07 La Casuccia but didn’t love it - actually seemed to have some funk to it — 10 months ago
Delicious, crisp fruit with a gerber baby food smell and vanilla pudding note, the best sparkling rose I’ve ever had — 4 years ago
Elegante e carezzevole — 5 years ago
Actually labelled
Teatro alla Scala
To honour La Scala di Milano theatre after the renovation of 2004 when they released the first vintage.
The bubbles are divine
The wine has a white flesh fruit element
A light biscuity scent and white flowers
It's long and so delightful
I haven't had a Franciacorta of this level for a looong time — 6 months ago

Vittorio Moretti bought the property in the 1970s.
His first vintage in 1979 was made with the idea of having his own wine to drink with friends.
Let’s all agree that we need a friend like that. — 7 days ago
