The 1997 Gran Cuvee (72% Chardonny and 28% Pinot Noir, one-fourth of which is aged in oak barriques for seven months prior to blending) displays an earthy, floral-scented nose in addition to good body, richness, and layers of flavor. There is also superb freshness and precision in this fabulous, full-flavored sparkler. It should last for 5-6 years.
This is a brilliant wine from winemaker Mattia Bezzola. The reference point for brilliantly pure, elegant, Italian sparkling wine, this offering can stand up to the finest Champagnes. This prestigious estate, created in the seventies by proprietor Vittorio Moretti, continues to fashion a bevy of dazzling sparklers.
