PRODUCT INFORMATION

"Bold: a wine that expresses the desire to carve one’s own path; brave and determined with an expressive and elegant
character, like my great-great-grandmother Leonia, who inspired me to make innovative choices. It was she who planted
French vines at Pomino, where the wine was made using the first gravity-fed cellars in Italy and was awarded the gold
medal at the Paris World’s Fair in 1878.”– Lamberto Frescobaldi

VINIFICATION AND AGEING
During the cooler hours of the day, the hand-harvested grapes arrive at the cellar in 15 kg crates, where they are slowly
and gently pressed, which allows the must to be extracted from the heart of the fruit. Once the cuvée is obtained, it
undergoes atwelve-hour cold clarification process, a decisive requirement when it comes to creating an exceptional and
clear sparkling wine base. After this process, controlled alcoholic fermentation slowly takes place, mainly in stainless steel
at 16°C. French oak barriques, a portion of which are new, are used for asmall percentage (15-20%) of the wine.In the
month of March following the harvest, the various cuvées are assembled, followed by the tirage and in-bottle refermentation, ageing on the lees for 32 months. The process concludes with remuage and degorgement followed by
further ageing in bottles.

TASTING NOTES
The elegance of Leonia2015 is immediately apparent: ashiny straw yellow colour with golden reflections and afine,
consistent perlage. Its citrus flower bouquet is immediately striking, accompanied by liquorice and balsamic notes. With
time, sweet notes of pastries and toasted bread emerge, thanks to the prolonged ageing on the lees. The stunning finish
features delicate Mediterranean aromas, among which Scotch broom and wild mint stand out. To the taste, the fine
effervescence and richness immediately make astatement. Like astraight line, the Chardonnay dazzles on the palate with
its vibrancy and freshness. Intense citrus notes are perceived, while the full flavours of Pinot Noir are the perfect
accompaniment. The soft, round finish emerges with the slight spiciness of anise.
