Franciacorta DOCG Zero 2019 (750 ml.) Contadi Castaldi
Franciacorta Zèro by Contadi Castaldi is a 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Noir cuvée, coming from an extraordinary morainic soil that gives the grapes and the wine their savory flavor, as well as a great personality and precision in the taste design. For Zèro 2019 there are 22 harvest selections and 29 vineyards that make up its sensory heritage, the expression of a vintage that has given rise to an energetic, powerful and structured wine, but also pleasant and easy to drink. The winery was founded in 1991 by the historic Moretti family, founder of the famous and renowned Bellavista. The sparkling wine ages on the lees for 38-42 months, and a further 6 months post disgorgement. Complex in aromas, with hints of grapefruit, blackcurrant and walnut husk, unusual traces of laurel and green tobacco. Modulated, structured and clear to the taste, it closes long and pleasantly persistent.

CCT-FRANCIACORTA-ZERO-2019
Contadi Castaldi was founded in 1987 in Adro, when Vittorio Moretti, already owner of the Bellavista winery, decided to transform an old furnace he had purchased because it was linked to his wife's childhood memories into a sparkling wine house. It became a famous and innovative Franciacorta winery capable of combining charm, experimentation, modernity and excellence, thanks to the Moretti family's ancient and well-rooted passion for wine, combined with extraordinary entrepreneurial expertise.
One of the merits of this Franciacorta company was, for example, to have studied and developed the concept of Satèn, and for this reason the winery has become a great point of reference for this type.
Currently the wineries have a large park of vineyards and about 7,000 square meters of internal rooms that host the entire production cycle, from pressing the bunches to aging on the lees in the bottle according to the Classic Method. Large investments are reserved for research and experimentation, also stimulated through the organization of training masters on wine.
