Tasting Notes: Berlucchi is where Franciacorta began: in 1961 Guido Berlucchi and winemaker Franco Ziliani made the area’s first traditional-method sparkling wine, and the ’61” line honors that founding vintage. This Extra Brut, mostly Chardonnay with Pinot Nero, is crisp and precise, with fine bubbles and notes of green apple, citrus, white flowers and toasted bread, a taut, mineral palate and a bone-dry finish. Perfect with oysters, crudo, fried appetizers or as an aperitivo.
