Rosé de Saignée

Gussago, Franciacorta, Italy

Pinot Noir produced in the "saignée" method where a portion of the juice is "bled" or pressed out of the grapes. The remaining grapes undergo an over-night maceration where this portion of juice gains more colour and extraction from the skins. Fermented and aged in barriques for 54 months or 4.5 years on the lees. Also considered a vintage sparkling from Alessandra, all of the juice comes from the 2019 vintage, as no vin de reserve is added to this cuvée. Disgorged in January 2024. Fragrant red fruits on the nose, with a powerful and elegant fruit expression on the palate.
