VINEYARDS OF ORIGIN

Franciacorta Milledi is an expression of minerality and sapidity. They select chardonnays from 12 different vineyards located in 8 communes of Franciacorta for the cuvee of this Franciacorta.

WINEMAKING

Whole cluster grapes are pressed with a pneumatic press at very gentle pressures. During winemaking, the musts are separated into two fractions: first-pressing must, which has the best quality characteristics and is used for the production of Franciacorta, and second-pressing must, which is not used for bottling. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 16 to 18 °C. The base wine rests in tanks until the spring following the harvest.
