APPEARANCE: Abundant mousse, long-lingering crown and slender bead of pin-pint bubbles. COLOUR: Intense straw-yellow with pink-gold highlights. BOUQUET: Full, broad bouquet, showcasing apricot, yellow peach, and candied orange peel. PALATE: Its hallmarks are its remarkable crispness, cleanedged palate, and firm structure, well-supported by a magisterial acidity and vibrant minerality that contribute to its distinctive length and appreciable longevity. SERVING SUGGESTIONS: This full-bodied Riserva partners impressively with rich, complex dishes, for example elaborate first courses, fish stews, and main courses of meat.
A well-aged Franciacorta with a nice oxidative layer of pine nut and honey to the lemon-curd and yeasty, bread-crust character. Quite concentrated and broad on the palate, with intense sour dough and baked apricot. Tiny beads and autolysis fully woven on the palate, before a mouthwatering finish. Drink now.
The 2010 Extra Brut Riserva Palazzo Lana Extreme is stunning with a deep yellow golden color. A rich and floral bouquet shows crushed almonds and smoky minerals that give way to dusty dried flowers and hints of savory spice. While elegant and silky in texture, this impresses further with its balance of brilliant acidity, salty minerals and vivid green apple fruit. Tension remains high, as the Extra Brut Lana Extreme finishes persistent and lightly structured, leaving hints of hazelnut and ginger to linger. Well done
