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: Blanc de blancs (champagne)
Champagne made only from the Chardonnay grape. The expression has been somewhat overused by the intensive use made of it by certain large distributors of white table wines (or sparkling wines) who were thus seeking to promote their product.
