The wine region of Curtefranca
Lombard DOC renamed in 2008 (~2,800 ha south shore Lake Iseo, Brescia): signature Chardonnay as white king (50%) complemented by Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir — rich aromatic profile with lively acidity. Merlot (25%), Cabernet Sauvignon (10-35%), Cabernet Franc and Carmenère (20%) as red kings — structured Bordeaux style with black fruits and spice. Tempered lakeside microclimate, signature glacial moraines, still wines complementing neighbouring Franciacorta DOCG.
The wine region of Lombardia
Three poles. Franciacorta DOCG, Italy's answer to Champagne: elegant brioche traditional-method sparklers (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc), fine bubble and mineral profile. Alpine Valtellina: Nebbiolo (alias Chiavennasca) with fine tannins and red fruits, powerful Sforzato passito. Oltrepò Pavese: fresh Pinot Noir and fruity-sparkling Bonarda.
The word of the wine: Oenologist
Specialist in wine-making techniques. It is a profession and not a passion: one can be an oenophile without being an oenologist (and the opposite too!). Formerly attached to the Faculty of Pharmacy, oenology studies have become independent and have their own university course. Learning to make wine requires a good chemical background but also, increasingly, a good knowledge of the plant. Some oenologists work in laboratories (analysis). Others, the consulting oenologists, work directly in the properties.
