Metodo Classico (traditional method)
The cuvées represent the "Berlucchi style", the result of a skilful blend of wines harvested in Italy's best sparkling-wine areas: Franciacorta, Oltrepò Pavese, and Trentino-Alto Adige. |

The Franciacorta white wines
Four still white wines complement Berlucchi's sparkling wines:
Two Terre di Franciacorta DOC Curtefranca, the Bianco Imperiale, and our Gavi DOCG La Bollina.

The classic method
The world's top sparkling wines are produced by the classic method, the famous Champagne method: wines of several grape varieties, grown in different areas, and often of different vintages, are assembled together, then fermented a second time in the bottle adding special yeasts and sugar.
