1701

In Cazzago San Martino, in the Brescia area, 1701 produces Franciacorta DOCG in sparkling and rosé versions, within a denomination that unites nineteen municipalities across soils of volcanic origin and continental currents. The fundamental choice is biodynamic viticulture: eliminating synthetic inputs to encourage the vine to rely on its own physiology, with direct impacts on the expression of the terroir. The base grapes are Chardonnay, Pinot nero, and Pinot bianco, selected to faithfully convey the character of this corner of Lombardy. Each bottle ages for at least eighteen months, a period during which the wine gains finesse and complexity before release. This approach brings together two often-distant requirements—the ecological integrity of the vineyard and the rigor of the bubbles—making agronomic consistency the prerequisite for quality. It is a Franciacorta that starts from the soil and the vine, even before the cellar, and asserts its place within the perimeter of one of the most demanding denominations in Italian sparkling wine production.
