Descrizione

The Gran Cuvée Giorgi 1870 DOCG is an elegant sparkling wine born in the heart of the Lombard hills, a refined expression of a territory dedicated to the production of high-quality bubbles. This sparkling wine comes from a skillful blend of traditional grape varieties, carefully selected to give body and complexity to the blend.

The long aging method on the lees imparts a soft and creamy structure, enriched with delicate aromas of bread crust, citrus, and white flowers, intertwined with a pleasant freshness. The fine and persistent perlage enhances every sip, making the drink harmonious and vibrant.

Perfect as an aperitif or accompanying fish dishes and white meats, the Gran Cuvée Giorgi 1870 DOCG embodies the tradition and production expertise of the Giorgi winery, offering a memorable and refined sensory experience.

Winery history

The estate is led by the Bricolo family: parents Alberta and Roberto started the business, and it is now managed by their daughter Roberta. According to the winery, it was founded by the parents in 1975; in 2014 the current owners began the conversion to organic viticulture, which resulted in vineyard certification. Over the years the facilities have been expanded with architectural additions focused on hospitality and wine tourism.

Production philosophy

The company's philosophy centers on organic viticulture and sustainability: the organic approach is regarded as an indispensable choice to safeguard health and the land and to enhance the relationship between soil, vine and climate, with winemaking planned already in the vineyard.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located on the moraine hills around the village of Custoza, in the municipality of Sommacampagna, on glacially derived soils rich in pebbles and calcium carbonate, which impart minerality and salinity to the wines, typical of the Lake Garda area.

Awards and recognitions

Among the recognitions reported by the press and industry platforms are: Tre Bicchieri for the Custoza 'San Michelin'; international awards such as a Silver Medal and mentions in Decanter for the Custoza Superiore 'Summa'; and Mundus Vini medals for wines such as Ca' Nova.
