"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

TASTING NOTES
The extended refinement on the yeasts bequeaths the wine with an initially intense aroma of bread crust and patisserie ,
which give way to afresh bouquet of spring flowers with citrusy hints before ending with spiced nutmeg and thyme
leaves. The wine’s effervescence is persistent and the sapidity noteworthy: Leonia Brut is the perfect union of bubbly
Chardonnay, expressed through its grapefruit notes, and the generous body of Pinot Nero. The finish is pleasantly
alcoholic with liquorice notes.
WINE PAIRING: A noble and elegant wine. Pairs well with delicate appetizers and first courses of fish, white meat and
medium-aged cheeses, but also lends itself to bolder pairings
