Description
Almerita Contessa Franca 2016 from Tasca d’Almerita is a classic-method sparkling wine made from Chardonnay grown at the Tenuta Regaleali estate. It spends about 60 months on the lees and is bottled with an Extra Brut dosage; disgorgement took place in 2023. The grapes come from the Cava Rina vineyard at around 500 m on sandy soils, contributing to the wine’s structure and lively acidity.
