This Riserva from the renowned Trentino Ferrari cellar was born as a tribute to Bruno Lunelli who managed the Ferrari cellars from 1952 to 1969 following in the footsteps of the founder of the cellar itself, Giulio Ferrari. The exclusivity of this great Riserva, whose uniquely designed bottles are numbered, lies in the fruitful and surprising 2006 harvest, exactly 100 years after Lunelli's birth. For its production, 100% Chardonnay grapes are used, carefully selected during the harvest in September. Maturation required a period of 15 years on selected yeasts, with disgorgement in January 2022.
Characteristics of this Ferrari Riserva Bruno Lunelli 2006
Organoleptic examination shows a delicate golden color and a very fine perlage. A perfect balance predominates the olfactory bouquet, in which yellow-fleshed fruit, candied fruit, spices and hints of balsamic notes emerge. On the palate it is light and harmonious with a persistent but balanced finish and with clear references to yellow-fleshed fruit and broom.
Recommended pairings with this Riserva Ferrari sparkling wine
