A 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir sparkling blend from Antinori’s Franciacorta estate near the village of Calino. This elegant bubbly is packed tight with apple, apricot, lemon rind and nutty-smoky notes. Deep fruit flavors are accented by a full, round mouthfeel. Not imported to the U.S.

A pretty patchwork of delicate aromas such as grapefruit, white peach and crushed stone set the tone for a sparkler that delivers similar restraint and elegance in the mouth. It’s fleshy and fresh, with a citrus and toasted nut finish. Imported by Remy Cointreau USA.

A crowd-pleasing, Chard-based sparkler with freshness, a lively personality and generous aromas of pear and kiwi fruit. The yeast-buttery notes come through clean and sharp and render a delicate, soft wine with bold aromas and flavors. Imported by Remy Cointreau USA.

Here’s a beautifully pale and delicate rosé sparkler from Franciacorta that offers compelling aromas of wild berry, cranberry and cinnamon spice. There are citrus and pink grapefruit tones at the back and the wine is silky smooth in the mouth.

Nice and smooth, with pure green apple, citrus and rosemary aromas. Bold in the mouth, with melon, pineapple and subtle spice flavors. Finishes seductively dry, with stylish mushroom and toast flavors, almost like a good dry Sherry. Imported by Remy Cointreau USA.

This easy but elegant sparkler offers candy-like aromas of butterscotch and caramel followed by apricot and dried fruit. The wine is firm and tonic in the mouth with thick consistency and a crisp, cleansing finish.

Here’s a Chardonnay-based Satèn sparkler (with softer effervescence in the mouth) that delivers piquant freshness with sweet honey, apricot, mature peach and butterscotch. It’s an elegant and linear wine with a tame and soothing disposition overall.

The Antinori family’s blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Nero and Pinot Bianco makes for a creamy sparkler that is redolent of fresh bakery bread, yellow rose, caramel and almond nut. The wine has wide and easy appeal with a sophisticated approach and tangy tartness on the close.

Made with Pinot Nero, this is an incredibly delicate and feminine wine with encouraging notes of rose petal, cranberry and bramble. It has good intensity in the mouth, however, thanks to its solid texture and firm crispness.

Rich, creamy and opulent, Contessa Maggi is a magnificent sparkling wine (made from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Nero). The aromas embrace both floral and fruity tones such as mature peach, citrus and rose. You’ll also get drying mineral shadings and piquant spice on the long finish.
