Winery SoloUva

The project originated as part of the collective initiative associated with TerraUomoCielo and counts among its founding figures Giovanni Arcari and Nico Danesi; operational management is entrusted to Andrea Rudelli. The winery cultivates vineyards in the Franciacorta area and has developed around the idea of producing sparkling wines that express the local terroir without adding external sugars during secondary fermentation and dosage.

The winery employs the so-called Metodo SoloUva: grapes are harvested at full phenolic ripeness, and part of the sugar-rich must obtained from pressing is set aside and used both to initiate bottle re-fermentation and as the dosage liquid after disgorging, avoiding the addition of externally sourced sugars. The approach aims to highlight Franciacorta’s territorial identity and the varietal characteristics of the grapes.
