Facchetti
Facchetti Winery, located in Lombardy, Italy, is known for its high-quality wine production and traditional winemaking methods. The Lombardy region, particularly the Franciacorta region, is famous for its first-class sparkling wines and the diverse wine styles that are produced there.
Facchetti produces a wide range of wines, including both white and red wines as well as sparkling wines. The Franciacorta DOCG sparkling wines, which are made from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grape varieties, are particularly noteworthy. These wines are known for their elegance, fine perlage and complex aromas of citrus, white flowers and a touch of yeast.
A notable wine from the estate is Curtefranca Rosso, a red wine made from a blend of Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. This wine shows intense aromas of red fruits and spices and offers a balanced tannin structure with a long, velvety finish. The grape varieties each bring their particular characteristics: Cabernet Franc adds fine tannins and subtle aromas of small red fruits, while Cabernet Sauvignon provides complexity and structure and brings soft fruitiness to Merlot.
The special thing about Facchetti wines is the combination of traditional winemaking and modern technology, which makes it possible to produce wines of the highest quality. The estate's vineyards benefit from Lombardy's temperate climate, which is characterized by warm summers and mild winters, as well as from the mineral-rich morainic soils, which give the grapes their unique minerality.
