Descrizione

Il Franciacorta Brut DOCG Francesco Primo di Uberti è un autentico esempio del prestigio che i vini Franciacorta possono offrire. Prodotto nell'area rinomata della Franciacorta in Lombardia, questo spumante è realizzato con una selezione di uve Chardonnay e Pinot Nero, vinificate secondo il metodo classico, noto anche come metodo tradizionale o Champenoise.

Alla vista, si presenta con un colore giallo paglierino luminoso, arricchito da un perlage fine e persistente. Al naso, rivela un bouquet elegante e complesso, con note di fiori bianchi, agrumi, e frutta gialla matura, accanto a delicate sfumature di crosta di pane e lievito, derivanti dalla lunga sosta sui lieviti.

In bocca, il Francesco Primo esprime una piacevole freschezza e mineralità, sostenuta da una buona struttura e spessore. Le bollicine, persistenti e cremose, amplificano le sensazioni di freschezza e vivacità. I sapori di mela verde, pesca bianca e una leggera mandorla finale accompagnano un equilibrio sorprendente tra acidità e morbidezza, rendendo ogni sorso appagante e armonioso.

Perfetto come aperitivo, si abbina splendidamente a piatti di pesce, crostacei, e primi piatti a base di frutti di mare. Elegante e raffinato, questo Franciacorta Brut DOCG è l'espressione del terroir della Franciacorta e del know-how della cantina Uberti.

Winery history

The Uberti family has been present in the Erbusco area since the 18th century: a document from 12 October 1793 records the acquisition of a farmhouse and vineyards in Salem. The estate evolved in the 20th century, shifting to production focused on traditional method sparkling wines — the first harvest destined for Franciacorta was in 1978 — and, in subsequent generations, Silvia and Francesca Uberti took on roles in the management and development of the winery.

Production philosophy

The company prioritizes enhancing the local territory and biodiversity: soil care, targeted agronomic practices and sustainability-focused measures are central to its work in producing wines that reflect the identity of each vineyard.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located in the moraine amphitheatre of Franciacorta; the main growing locations are Erbusco, Adro, Calino and other surrounding parcels. The vineyards sit on hilly, well‑drained and well‑ventilated soils.
