“We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”

 

Although it was Walt Disney that originally said it, this quote defines the leading strategy of this wine region. 

Franciacorta has risen from a nascent producer of sparkling Italian wines in the 60’s to a recognized leader in the field today.

 

Join us for a follow up webinar about Franciacorta by May Matta-Aliah, Regional Education Ambassador and learn about the initiatives that the region has been embracing; from a focus on biodiversity to the introduction of new varieties.
