Descrizione

The Franciacorta Brut DOCG by Santus presents itself as an elegant expression of the renowned Franciacorta area in Lombardy, famous for the production of high-quality sparkling wines mainly derived from Pinot Nero, Chardonnay, and Pinot Bianco. This sparkling wine results from a careful selection of grapes and a meticulous traditional method of refermentation in the bottle that guarantees a fine and persistent foam. The extended aging on lees imparts complexity and a pleasing creaminess to the sip.

On the nose, the Franciacorta Brut expresses fragrant notes of white fruit, citrus, and hints of yeast and almond, which harmoniously integrate with a delicate mineral character. The palate, balanced and fresh, stands out for vibrant acidity and an elegant, savory finish.

Ideal to accompany seafood appetizers, fish dishes, or for refined toasts, this Jeroboam in wooden case is perfect to celebrate special moments with style and class.

Winery history

Cantina Santi was founded as a winery in Illasi and has been present in Valpolicella since the 19th century. During the 20th century the Santi family introduced technical innovations and progressively focused on high-end wines; in 1974 the winery became part of Gruppo Italiano Vini, which reinforced investments and facilities while preserving its local identity.

Production philosophy

Santi claims a style tied to the sense of place of Valpolicella: it favors the predominant use of Corvina in its selections, aging in large traditional casks, and the use of local woods to enhance the aromatic qualities typical of native grape varieties. The approach combines oenological research with respect for local practices.

Terroir and vineyards

Santi's vineyards and selections are concentrated in Val d'Illasi and the classic areas of Valpolicella, using a vineyard-selection approach across different exposures and microclimates to produce wines that reflect the local terroir. The winery also works with vineyards in other Veronese appellations such as Soave, Bardolino and Lugana.
