The Fiore Riserva entices with its captivating straw yellow hue and golden reflections.

On the palate, it exhibits a soft and complex character, with a full-bodied profile that is masterfully balanced by excellent acidity. The wine delights with a lingering, elegant, and rich finish.
The aromas of the bouquet are composed of ripe red fruit, spices, withered flowers and balsamic notes of olives and Mediterranean scrub.

Anniversario is the soul of Bersi Serlini Winery and the perfect Blanc de Blancs for your special, memorable events. It is the official wine of the Anniversaries that matter in life. 100% Chardonnay made in the traditional “Champenoise Method” with intense flavours on the nose of fresh fruits, white flowers and tropical mature fruits hints, typical of Franciacorta wines. Creamy and balanced on the palate with notes of almond, chestnut and peach ending with a lovely persistence and elegant finish. Its excellent freshness makes the Anniversario Blanc de Blancs a unique and elegant Franciacorta.
The youthful, red brick colour of the 2011 Unico immediately suggests that this is still young, even with eleven years of age. Aromas of strawberries, autumnal leaves and fresh saddle leather mingle with darker notes of bramble fruit and a hint of blackcurrants, sweet spice and dried camomile flowers. The palate is lean and tight; there is generosity evident with more maturing notes of sweeter strawberries, leather and cured meat in the background but these will need to be allowed time really to shine through. The tannins are incredibly fine, pin-prick and almost imperceptible at first, however the lightest of grips on the palate increases with tasting and the tannins are very clearly present on the finish. To me, this is a very subtle but incredibly beautiful Unico which is about lightness of touch and a perfect representation of its terroir over anything else. It feels almost like the light itself, with pure energy and such delicate characteristics they almost evade ones grasp at this stage. However, it is that wonderful, understated yet intense, deep core of flavour on the literally endless finish that makes it truly spectacular. Drink 2025-2065.
