Antica Fratta's 2008 Franciacorta Essence Brut is delicious blend of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Nero from Italy's most prestigious wine region that is dedicated solely to sparkling wines. This expression shows thick and creamy consistency with fragrant aromas of yellow flower, peach, honey and Golden Delicious apple. The wine offers a level of generous fullness and creaminess that is an absolute pleasure on the senses. Antica Fratta has created a memorable sparkling wine from northern Italy that I enthusiastically recommend. Score - 93. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, Aug. 20, 2015)
