Description
Franciacorta is a wine from the Province of Brescia (Lombardy) with DOCG status produced from grapes grown within the boundaries of the territory of Franciacorta, on the hills located between the southern shore of Lake Iseo and the city of Brescia. It was awarded DOC status in 1967, the designation then also including red and white still wines.
The 1975 Catturich Ducco Franciacorta is a rare, well-aged sparkling wine from the Franciacorta region, offering a unique and complex profile. Expect aromas of dried fruit, toasted almonds, and subtle hints of brioche, along with a delicate, nutty character that comes with age. The once-crisp acidity has mellowed, providing a smooth and creamy mouthfeel, while the fine bubbles persist in offering a pleasant texture. Over the years, the wine has developed layers of complexity, showcasing its maturity and elegance.
