Ferghettina Franciacorta Brut is an exceptional, refined sparkling wine crafted in the prestigious Franciacorta DOCG region of Lombardy, Italy. Produced by the Gatti family at the celebrated Ferghettina estate, this non-vintage wine showcases the finesse and elegance of traditional method sparkling winemaking. Sourced from organic hillside vineyards, it delivers a fresh, complex, and high-energy profile that rivals fine Champagne while retaining its distinct Italian personality.

Why You'll Love It

This wine stands out for its delicate perlage, remarkable balance, and creamy mouthfeel achieved through extended lees ageing. Crafted using the Metodo Classico technique, the wine spends a minimum of 24 months resting on its fine lees in bottle to develop rich brioche nuances alongside crisp orchard fruit notes. Its combination of vibrant citrus acidity, subtle yeasty complexity, and persistent effervescence makes it a sophisticated choice for celebrations or gastronomic pairings.

Vineyard & Production

The fruit is harvested from 55 estate vineyard parcels situated across 11 communes in Franciacorta, lying on gentle slopes between 200 and 350 metres above sea level. The hand-picked grapes undergo gentle whole-bunch pressing, with only the free-run juice selected for fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Following secondary fermentation in the bottle, the wine matures on its lees for at least 24 months before disgorgement, followed by a light dosage that preserves its crisp, refreshing style.

Tasting Notes

In the glass, it displays a bright straw-yellow colour with luminous greenish highlights and a fine, persistent bead of bubbles. The nose opens with an inviting bouquet of white flowers, crunchy green apple, and fresh pear, accompanied by delicate notes of toasted hazelnut, freshly baked bread, and citrus zest. On the palate, it is dry, elegant, and beautifully structured, offering a silky texture, lively mineral acidity, and a long, clean, and invigorating finish.

Perfect Pairings

With its vibrant effervescence and clean, dry profile, this Franciacorta Brut serves as a brilliant aperitif and a superb match for seafood. It pairs magnificently with fresh oysters, sea bass carpaccio, shellfish platters, and sushi. It is also an outstanding partner for delicate vegetable risotto, creamy cheeses, and light poultry or veal dishes.
