The Extra Brut 'Golf 1927' from the Franciacorta Wine Box included in this three-bottle set is composed of a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Nero, comprising 95% and 5% respectively. These grapes come from 26 different vineyards located in the municipalities of Provaglio d'Iseo, Passirano, Corte Franca, and Adro, defined by morainic soils with good permeability. After manual harvesting, the clusters undergo soft pressing to obtain the must. This is then placed in stainless steel tanks where it undergoes alcoholic fermentation followed by 6 months of maturation. Once the base wine is obtained, the refermentation phase in the bottle begins, which involves a period of aging on the lees for 20 to 30 months.

The Franciacorta Barone Pizzini 'Golf 1927' Extra Brut included in the Box features a beautiful straw yellow color, enlivened by a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, bakery notes blend with fruity and floral undertones, creating a bouquet of complexity and pleasantness. On the palate, an enveloping character dominates, balanced by lively acidity. It is memorable for its elegance and finesse. Perfect to sip during a refined break between golf rounds at a classy restaurant.
