Uberti’s Francesco I Rosè is a Franciacorta that tells a story of passion, tradition and innovation. Born of the Uberti family’s dedication to care for the land and environmental sustainability, this cuvée is a tribute to the elegance and richness of Franciacorta. Its production is rooted in the historicity of the vineyards of Erbusco, Adro, Cazzago San Martino and Cologne, an area characterised by morainic hills that give the soil a composition rich in minerals and skeleton, perfect for growing high quality grapes.

The choice of the name ‘Francesco I’ evokes a historical figure that has marked the path of the Uberti family, which has always been linked to this territory. The Rosè wine is distinguished by the use of a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, grapes that, thanks to the geo-climatic characteristics of the soil, are cultivated with an almost maniacal attention to quality and biodiversity.

The vines are tended using sustainable methods that respect the balance of the environment and the fertility of the soil. The result is a wine that embodies the purity of the land from which it comes, with an ageing process that takes place on the lees for at least 24 months, a process that gives the Rosè a remarkable complexity while maintaining an extraordinary freshness.

The Francesco I Rosè stands out from the first glance: the colour is an intense antique pink, with reflections that anticipate its rich and lively personality. The nose is broad and enveloping, with aromas of small red fruits, citrus notes and hints of bread crust mingling harmoniously. In the mouth, the wine has a surprising finesse, a fine and persistent perlage, and a perfect balance between freshness and structure. The minerality of the soil makes itself felt, giving the wine a long persistence and a pleasant savouriness that makes it ideal both as an aperitif and with refined fish and white meat dishes.

This Franciacorta Rosè is the result of a continuous search for perfection and a deep love for the territory that saw it born, a wine that knows how to tell the story of those who created it and of the places that welcome it.
