Persoonlijke gegevens
In the Franciacorta area, between Brescia and Bergamo, at Lake Iseo, this traditional sparkling wine is made. The mountains and the lake have a favourable influence on the wine. The soil and the same grape varieties as in champagne ensure that this wine has become a formidable competitor to the well-known champagnes. Maturing in the bottle takes place for 25 to 37 months, which results in a very elegant, internationally appreciated wine. It is a blend of young and reserve wines. Nicely dry and fruity, fresh, berry, elegant wine with a fine persistent perlage.
Ca' del Bosco is owned by Maurizio Zanella, one of the most important producers in the area, if not in Italy. Zanella played a major role in the Italian wine renaissance of the past decades. Zanella's work led to the Franciacorta area obtaining DOCG status in 1995. This status applies only to sparkling wines made according to the metodo tradizionale (the method of making French Champagne). With no less than 30 times the maximum score in the Gambero Rosso, Ca' Del Bosco is one of the most appreciated and successful wineries in Italy.
The company is housed in a spectacular modern building, beautifully situated in the hills and surrounded by 160 hectares of vineyards. Art plays a major role. The most modern techniques are used in the cellars.
Grape varieties: 75% Chardonnay, 10% Pinot Bianco, 15% Pinot Nero.

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | 1. De belangrijkste smaakprofielen zijn verfijnde citrustonen van preserved lemon en candied orange, rijp steenfruit zoals gedroogde abrikoos en ananas, subtiele brioche- en toastnoten met een fijne, aanhoudende pareling en een zijdezachte, frisse afdronk. 2. Door de sprankelende frisheid en de fijne mousse werkt deze Franciacorta uitstekend bij witte vis, schelp- en schaaldieren en bij sushi en sashimi omdat de zuren het vet reinigen en de brioche-achtige gisttonen de umami en zoute accenten mooi omlijsten, waardoor hij ook bij feestelijke en borrelhapjes als frisse contrapunt fungeert. 3. Specifieke bereidingswijzen die extra goed werken zijn licht gestoomde of in papillote gegaarde witvis met citroen en verse kruiden, rauwe bereidingen zoals ceviche of sashimi en oesters of coquilles natuurlijk, maar ook licht gebakken coquilles met een romige beurre blanc of knapperige tempura van zeevruchten versterken de balans tussen rijke textuur en frisse mousse. |

The non-vintage Franciacorta Cuvee Prestige is packaged in a transparent, squat bottle. You can admire the color of the wine, with its deep golden highlights, from afar. But only once the cork is popped, will you appreciate the width of its aromas. Preserved lemon, dried apricot, pineapple, toasted nut, baguette and candied orange peel come from the glass. For an entry level Franciacorta (representing a blend of 75% Chardonnay, 20% Pinot Bianco and 15% Pinot Nero), the complexity is impressive. The mouthfeel is extra suave and smooth with a distant point of sweet fruit that rides long on the finish. This bottle was disgorged in the fall of 2012. Drink: 2014-2017.
Every region has its shining star – that single estate that symbolically encapsulates the prestige and potential of an entire region. Ca’ del Bosco is to Franciacorta what Biondi Santi is to Montalcino or what Giacomo Conterno is to Barolo. With a statement of that magnitude comes enormous responsibility – something Maurizio Zanella has understood flawlessly. He wears two hats: one as president of Ca’ del Bosco and one as president of the Franciacorta Consorzio charged with the region’s promotional efforts. He has been fantastically effective from all points. If Franciacorta is finally entering a new level of notoriety, much of the credit goes to Zanella.
