What wine is Franciacorta Dosaggio Zero DOCG 'NumeroZero' - Muratori

Vintage details

The Chardonnay grapes that make up 'NumeroZero' come from a carefully selected harvest, with bunches picked at the perfect ripeness to maintain balance between acidity and softness. The climatic conditions of the area favor ideal temperature fluctuations for developing aromas and freshness, essential elements for a high-level Dosaggio Zero.

Vinification and aging

Produced exclusively with 100% Chardonnay grapes, Franciacorta Dosaggio Zero DOCG 'NumeroZero' - Muratori first ferments in stainless steel to preserve the aromas and fragrance of the fruit. This is followed by secondary fermentation in the bottle according to the Metodo Classico, with aging on the lees for approximately 18 months. This aging period gives aromatic complexity and a fine, persistent mousse, without ever overpowering the wine's natural freshness.
