Bosca Esploro Piemonte DOC — Extra-dry sparkling wine, Blanc de Blancs —
€ 12.30 incl. IVA
A land like Piedmont knows how to tell its story in many ways — even without words. Its colors and fruits are enough.
Picture it: golden hills covered with bright Chardonnay grapes — the only variety capable of giving sparkling wine such magnificent structure. Blanc de Blancs, the White of Whites. That’s what it’s all about.
Sight
Bright straw yellow with golden reflections.
Nose
Shows a beautiful balance between fresh, fruity notes of apple and white peach and warmer nuances of ripe fruit such as pineapple and banana, enhanced by a subtle winy touch.
Taste
On the palate it is dry, with good alcohol content, freshness, and a pleasant mineral edge.
Pairing tips
Unleash your creativity. Try it with vegetable dishes, fried blue fish, savoury pies, fritters, and stuffed puff pastries. It also pairs beautifully with smoked salmon, octopus, shrimp served with herb creams, or tartare with anchovy butter.
For the first course, it complements arancini, seafood risotto, pasta with pesto, spaghetti with clams, and even a good pizza or stuffed focaccia. Finally, enjoy it with delicate fish and light mains.
To avoid: heavy, sweet, or overly complex dishes that would overshadow its finesse.
It’s your guy if…
…You’re looking for a lively, fragrant, and easy-drinking wine that lifts the mood and is perfect for sharing moments of joyful lightness.
