Berlucchi NV Cuvée Storica Brut Sparkling (Franciacorta)
- Online Exclusive
There’s a tiny component here of Pinot Nero that adds fresh floral and fruity highlights to the creamy consistency of this mostly Chardonnay-based sparkler. Aromas include acacia, peach and smooth yeast. It’s a low-key, but friendly bubbly wine.

Berlucchi 2002 Cellarius Brut Sparkling (Franciacorta)
One notch up on the aromatic intensity ladder but slightly muddled in its complexity. The aromas are fresh, but lie somewhere between flowers and fruit. Silky, rich and smooth on the palate.
