The Italian Champenoise Method
The only possible path from vineyard to cellar is via the heart
Villa Franciacorta, a small medieval hamlet dating back to the fifteenth century, is located in Monticelli Brusati just short distance from Lake Iseo. Around every corner of this precious area of Franciacorta you may catch glimpses of the past re-emerging in the medieval hamlet of Villa: from the Roman road that skirts the river and runs through the property, to the ancient well set beside the drive way and the perfectly preserved underground cellars dating back to centuries past.
The winery is the living passion and stands as a monument to the ancient tradition of the Franciacorta Method
Through the intriguing tunnels, dug into the hillside of Madonna della Rosa, cool and silent darkness combine with time to create the essential elements of a recipe that has enabled Villa to establish itself as the brand of excellence in the wine world. They offer an exciting journey to the soul of Franciacorta, a journey that takes us back through the different periods of the winery’s construction. From the most recent vinification room we travel back in time until we reach the ancient sixteenth century cellar.
