Named in homage to the family’s historic villa in Borgonato, it combines long lees ageing with the character of Franciacorta’s glacially shaped vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt shows an intense straw-yellow colour with a fine, persistent stream of bubbles. The complex nose brings together apple, citrus and aromatic herbs with developed notes of pastry and chocolate.\n\nOn the palate, it is mature and harmonious, with generous richness, a long, spicy finish and a touch of toasted almond. Its extended lees ageing gives it the structure to evolve, though a specific drinking window is not provided.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes come from hills around Borgonato and Torbiato, where glacial moraine and river deposits of clay, sand and gravel provide good drainage and contribute a mineral character. Yields are kept low and harvesting is done entirely by hand. After gentle pressing, the must ferments and matures in selected barrels; the wine then undergoes its second fermentation in bottle and an extended period on the lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe well chilled at 6–8°C with seafood, shellfish and elegant starters; its mature, savoury notes also suit a selection of cheeses. Decanting is generally unnecessary for a traditional-method sparkling wine—open shortly before serving and pour gently to preserve its fine bubbles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFreccianera’s Casa delle Colonne cuvée takes its name from the family’s historic residence in Borgonato, reflecting a close connection to the Franciacorta area.
