Pouring into the glass, it reveals itself with a fascinating straw yellow color that captures the light in a vibrant way, anticipating the sensory experience that is about to begin.

The bouquet of this wine is a symphony of aromas that captures the essence of nature. Floral and fresh citrus notes intertwine with the warmth of acacia honey, the enveloping aroma of apricot and the richness of dried fruit. It is an invitation to explore a world of complex fragrances.

It presents itself with a fine creaminess that caresses the palate, offering an extraordinary harmony between acidity and sweetness. The savory finish underlines the freshness of this sparkling wine, creating a perfect balance between its sensorial qualities.

This Franciacorta is an exceptional choice for special occasions. It is perfect as an aperitif, but pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as gourmet appetizers or seafood. Its versatility makes it an ideal companion for many culinary experiences, adding a note of elegance and freshness to any occasion.

The choice to produce this sparkling wine organically demonstrates Barone Pizzini's commitment to adopting environmentally friendly working methods, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. The result is a bottle that represents the meeting between winemaking tradition and sustainability, encapsulating the beauty of the territory in every sip.

The Pizzini family has been connected to Franciacorta for generations; Amministrazione Agricola Pizzini dates back to 1870 and the estate was involved from the earliest stages in the development of the appellation. In the 1990s the company restructured, adopting a sustainability-focused model: conversion to organic viticulture began in the late 1990s and led to the first organic Franciacorta harvest in 2002. In the 2000s a new winery was built, designed according to sustainable building principles.
Production philosophy
An approach focused on organic farming, biodiversity conservation and reducing environmental impact. This philosophy is applied from vineyard to winery. The work aims to produce wines that express the terroir while respecting its natural balance.
Terroir and vineyards
Franciacorta, with vineyards around Provaglio d'Iseo; moraine soils and fluvio‑glacial deposits characterize the estate's various crus.
