The Cellar

The cellar covers an area of 1000 m², completely underground, at a depth of 8 m.
The temperature in which our Franciacorta wines are aged is kept constant by an air-conditioning system operating in all areas of the cellar and controlled by an electronic control unit.
In the vinification area we have 28 stainless steel tanks, all equipped with temperature detection and control sensors, with different capacities (100 hl, 50 hl and 25 hl), in order to vinify grapes from different plots separately, enhancing the typicality of each vineyard.
These different Franciacorta base wines are blended, in defined percentages, only at the moment of the formation of the cuvè, which will then give rise to Franciacorta.
In the small barrique cellar, part of the Franciacorta base wine is aged for a few months, again depending on the grape variety and the soil and climate of each vineyard.
In the ageing (or sparkling) area, the bottles rest on the lees for the time necessary to become Franciacorta.
