Descrizione

The Franciacorta Dosaggio Zero DOCG by Santus represents the purest expression of the refined sparkling wine tradition of Franciacorta, one of the most prestigious wine regions in Lombardy. Made from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Nero grapes, this Franciacorta stands out for the complete absence of added sugars after disgorging, which highlights the authentic character and mineral quality of the morainic territory from which it comes.

On the nose, it opens with elegant notes of fresh citrus, toasted bread, and yeast, while on the palate it reveals a dry and vibrant structure, with very fine bubbles and a long, enveloping finish. The extended aging on the lees imparts complexity and harmony, bringing out hints of almond and a slight, almost maritime savoriness.

Perfect as an aperitif, it also pairs well with delicate dishes of raw fish or white meats, enhancing the freshness and refinement of the ingredients. An elegant and authentic Franciacorta, ideal for those seeking an uncompromising enological experience.

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.
