Sparkling wine | Franciacorta DOCG

Italian Champagne!
The Franciacorta region specializes in sparkling wines, Champagne version. With the same approach, called ''traditional method''. And two advantages: an often more affordable price, and a rounder profile. This Plozza vintage seduces with its aromas of fresh fruit, enhanced with delicate notes of almond, hazelnut and dried fig. Its fine bubbles give a festive air to any occasion!

Wine-growing region

An idyllic wine region south of Lake Iseo in Lombardy. Since the sixties, noble sparkling wines have been produced here using the Champagne method, which - in contrast to the simpler so-called closed tank method - is a very elaborate procedure.

Winemaking

After bottling, Franciacorta Brut remains on the lees for 24 months. The total duration of aging and maturation is 30 months. During this time, a pressure of 5 to 6 atm develops inside the bottle.

Bottle closure

Cork

Packaging

Plozza Franciacorta

The Plozza group, a renowned Valtellina wine company, completed its product range in 2009 by acquiring a winery in Ome, near Lake Iseo, in the Franciacorta region. Noble sparkling wines, made using the traditional method (as in Champagne), have been produced in this region since the 1960s. From 1995, they benefited from the DOCG denomination.
