Le Marchesine
Le Marchesine produces sparkling wines in Franciacorta, Lombardia's prestigious appellation for méthode champenoise bottlings. The winery's portfolio centers on Chardonnay-based cuvées, with the Secolo Novo Franciacorta Dosage Zèro Riserva showcasing the grape's mineral precision in a zero-dosage format. The Secolo Novo Franciacorta Millesimato Brut offers a more traditional expression of the same varietal, while the Franciacorta Millesimato Brut blends Pinot Nero, Chardonnay, and Pinot Blanc into a structured, food-friendly aperitif. Franciacorta's cool continental climate and limestone-rich soils define the region's signature style: high acidity, fine bubbles, and elegant complexity. Le Marchesine's wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, and Wine Spectator.
