Freccianera

Recognition for the superb quality of the Freccianera wines continues to roll in, with top prizes at the recent Champagne and Sparkling Wine World Championships (CSWWC). We have listed one of the successful wines; the Xtra Brut 2020 which shows a wonderful combination of freshness and elegance and which certainly captured the judges’ imagination.

The vines, aged between 10 and 50 years, are 220m above sea level, and are planted on calcareous morainic soils. The principal varietals are Chardonnay, Pinot Nero and Pinot Bianco, but they also have Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon for their still wines. Franciacorta Brut 25 is 100% Chardonnay and comes from the estate’s younger wines. It represents exceptional value for money and makes the perfect pouring Franciacorta.

Casa del Collone Riserva Zero Dosage 2015 picked up the top medal possible at Decanter – a Platinum medal.
