Not as yeasty as expected for a wine that spent 6+ years on the lees. Lots of golden (bruised) apple, some pear juice, bitter lemon peel and bitter almond on the finish. Touch of honey, touch of that tangy yogurt/sourdough thing happening. Hint of RS but the acidity is banging. — 6 years ago
Here’s another Franciacorta that you could sip every day and on every occasion, showing layers of complexity and broad appeal. Strawberry, pear, stone fruit pit, floral aromatics and toast. Soft and clean the palate, wonderfully fresh. — 7 years ago

Stunning bouquet. Paired beautifully with the crab legs with jalapeño butter and grilled corn. One of the best values in bubbly I’ve had. $35-$40 @ Houston Wine Merchant. — 7 years ago
Great quality, fresh but long on the finish. It was beautiful with truffle tagliatelle — 8 years ago
This has a long life ahead. Super rich and toasty with ripe red fruits coming through on the palate. Definitely hold this '05 rosé. — 9 years ago

Black cherry, cherry blossom, carnation and a lime and lemon with a lemongrass touch, on a fresh strawberry nose, salted watermelon, lemon zest and nearly ripe strawberry, raspberry, and tangerine pith. Absolutely made for sushi! #franciacorta #methodoclassico #bubbles #RicciCurbastro #sparkling #spumante #rose #rosébrut — 7 years ago
