Il Mosnel Franciacorta Extra Brut Millesime EBB 2018 750ml

A dense cream of pin-point bubbles enlivens its crystalline brilliance, then an intense draught of verbena, osmanthus, and a touch of lemon rise from the glass, melded with green apple and citron and fleeting appearances of green tea and fresh ginger. A few more minutes summon up impressions found on the midpalate: savoury hints of almond and honey, of pan brioche and Asian pear, all enfolded in an electrically citrus embrace that, in tandem with a succulent mineral grip, thrusts towards a scrupulously elegant, lengthy palate, every component marking a youthful wine on the path to a complex future.
