A fan favorite, this classic method sparkling has wild berries on the nose and an amazing zip of acidity on the palate. 61 is a tribute to the year 1961 when Berlucchi pioneered the now famous wine region of Franciacorta.VISUAL APPEARANCE Soft foam, soft, with good persistence of a soft crown; thin and continuous perlage. COLOR Intense rose, which can vary slightly at each harvest for the different degree of phenolic ripening of Pinot Noir. NOSE Elegant notes of berries and ripe fruit, well blended with delicate aromas of yeast and bread crust. Pleasant wineiness, due to the short maceration of Pinot Noir on the skins in the winemaking phase. TASTE On the palate it is fine, elegant, lively and well-bodied; the medium-high dosage of sugars balances the marked acidity.
