Franciacorta Crisalis Blanc de Noir Brut 2018, Derbusco Cives
The Franciacorta "Crisalis" Blanc de Noir Brut 2018 from Derbusco Cives is a distinctive and precise expression of Pinot Noir grown in the moraines of Erbusco. This cuvée, named after the metamorphosis of the chrysalis, represents the pinnacle of the Maison's stylistic exploration of the power and finesse of the black grape. The 2018 vintage has given the wine a significant structure and a masterful balance between phenolic ripeness and acidic tension. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of red currant, wholemeal bread crust, and hibiscus flowers merge with deep hints of small pastries, ginger, and a mineral trace reminiscent of flint. On the palate, it is sumptuous and enveloping; the entry is broad, dominated by dense and savory matter that stretches toward a vertical, long finish with an endless aromatic persistence, characterized by echoes of red citrus and an aristocratic tactile creaminess.
