This wine is obtained exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, harvested at an advanced stage of ripeness to enhance the organoleptic characteristics to the maximum.\u003cbr\u003eIn some vintages, the grapes are left to attack by the \u003cem\u003eBotrytis Cynerea\u003c\/em\u003e, known as noble rot. This natural phenomenon occurs under particular climatic conditions, with foggy mornings followed by hot, dry afternoons. Noble rot gradually dries out the grapes, reducing the water content and concentrating the aromatic compounds, giving the wine a unique flavor profile.\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003cli\u003e  \u003cstrong\u003eCharacteristics\u003c\/strong\u003eFranciacorta Essenza has a bright straw yellow color and a fine and persistent perlage.
