The Ca' del Bosco 2018 Franciacorta Vintage Collection Dosage Zéro is 76% Chardonnay, 16% Pinot Nero and 8% Pinot Bianco. It ferments in small oak casks for five months, followed by 48 months sur lie. The wine shows an immediate brightness and focus with crisp lemon, bitter almond and apple, with some delicate white flower or elderflower that gives this sparkler a punchy and refreshing character. For a Dosage Zéro, it has a nice contrast between body and acidity, not an easy feat, despite the fact there is no added sugar.
