OPPOSÉ

Only the best grapes of pinot noir from our premium vineyard in Monterotondo are employed in the making of this Franciacorta: Opposé, the ultimate expression of the quality and passion as it pertains to the Bariselli family’s experience in winemaking.

The first fermentation takes place within temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks in which our Franciacorta base wine stands for the following eight months, until the blending of our cuvees in May. In this instance the harvest takes places during the first ten days of September, allowing us to pick fresher grapes with slightly higher alcoholic content compared to our other wines, which is pivotal to support the full structure and stature of this one.

As mandated by traditional method’s standards the second fermentation is slow, taking its time to reach excellence whilst being kept under scrutiny every single day. Each bottle goes through a minimum of 70 months aging on the lees to then being completed by pure disgorgement with the addition of a liqueur whose contents includes 3 grams per liter of sugar and a supplementary
dose of this very same wine. As it stands this wine is an extra-brut, which guarantees the maximum expression of both the quality of our grapes and the passion infused within our work.
