Winemaking

After the high-quality Chardonnay grapes have been gently pressed, fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks. Following fermentation, the base wine is bottled, where the second fermentation with the yeast takes place for a period of 30 months. In the case of the driest version, the «Dosaggio Zero», no dosages after added following the removal of the yeast (disgorging).

Our tasting note

The Franciacorta Dosaggio Zero has a straw-yellow colour with golden reflections. A light nose of peach, apple and apricot aromas. It is well structured and vibrant on the pallet with fine notes of barrique. A soft Franciacorta with good maturing potential.

Le Quattro Terre

We would describe the acquaintance with the two brothers Giorgio and Matteo Vezzoli, from the still young yet magnificent Le Quattro Terre vineyard, as a complete stroke of luck. The small 6.5 hectare winery in Corte Franca, at the heart of the Franciacorta region, is surrounded by a stunning backdrop of dense forests, vineyards and olive groves. The perfect foundations are established for complex and subtle Francaicorta sparkling wine - produced in manageable and small volumes (approx. 45,000 yearly) - through careful soil cultivation, consistent yield reduction and gentle pressing.
