Winemaking and Refinement

The base wines of the Cuvée Prestige are the result of a careful selection of grapes and expert vinification carried out in full compliance with the Ca'del Bosco Method. After pressing in the absence of oxygen, all the musts of the base wines ferment in temperature-controlled steel tanks and remain there until the following March. Seven additional months of refinement are necessary for the wine to clarify, mature and bring out the character of the vineyards of origin. The wines are then expertly assembled with noble reserve wines of the best vintages (from 20 to 30%) in the “magic rite” of creating the cuvée. This particular technique gives the Cuvée Prestige a distinct

personality. The essence of Franciacorta in Ca' del Bosco style. Only after an average refinement on the lees of 25 months can this Franciacorta express all its richness and identity.
