The Berlucchi Cuvée Storica Franciacorta DOCG Brut, officially introduced at the September 2004 Festival del Franciacorta, represents an important milestone in the history of our House.
After nearly 30 years, Berlucchi has returned to the denomination that it created and helped to develop and become successful.
We are returning to the distinctiveness of a specific terroir, to a land where our roots go deep, and that return is a tribute to the genius of Guido Berlucchi and Franco Ziliani, the first to see clearly Franciacorta’s promise.
To those who appreciate fine sparkling wine Berlucchi Cuvée Storica Franciacorta DOCG Brut offers our own interpretation of the unique qualities of the Franciacorta terroir. |
