Franciacorta Brut Berlucchi '61 shows a pale straw yellow color and nuances
of greenish yellow, very transparent, fine and persistent perlage. The nose
denotes intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas which start with hints
of apple, banana and bread crust followed by aromas of acacia, hawthorn,
yeast, grapefruit, pear, peach and hazelnut. The mouth has good
correspondence to the nose, an effervescent and crisp attack, however
balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, agreeable. The finish is
persistent with flavors of banana, apple and grapefruit. Franciacorta Brut
