The 2007 Franciacorta Collezione Grandi Cru Brut is 100% Chardonnay with 10% in oak. There’s a subtle and subdued quality to this wine and its aromas are presented in a slightly more austere and streamlined fashion. Those drying Brut characteristics give the wine a sharply defined, elegant finish displaying a touch of toasted almond. Drink: 2014-2017.
This family-run winery was started by father and son team Gian Paolo and Giovanni Cavalleri back in 1979 with a small production of just 6,000 bottles. Maintaining its petite, family-run framework, the winery sources fruit from two dozen specific vineyard sites surrounding the town of Erbusco at the heart of Franciacorta. The house style, based primarily on Chardonnay, shows very fruit-forward wines laced with baking spice and cinnamon.
