THE BERLUCCHI VINEYARDS: NOT THE MOST GRAPES, BUT THE BEST.

Certified organic since 2016, the Berlucchi vineyards represent the state of the art of viticulture in Franciacorta. What makes them so special is production philosophy, which espouses the related principles of quality and sustainability. That’s why we choose to produce less but better.

Luckily, we have technology on our side. For example, with the Mille1Vigna project, the vineyards were analysed and classified to associate the character of each wine with the corresponding soil type. And thanks to infrared aerial mapping, we were able to assess the fertility of the different areas of the vineyard, staggering the harvest and fertilising only if necessary.

Biopass soil biodiversity analysis has confirmed that we are on the right track: our soils are healthy and full of life.

CURIOSITIES.
Did you know why our most precious vineyard is called Brolo?
Did you know why our most precious vineyard is called Brolo?

Brolo is a word that was once widespread in northern Italy and Tuscany, meaning “garden surrounded by walls”. Being the plot closest to Palazzo Lana, it was already dedicated to the most precious crops, such as fruit trees, precisely because it could be easily monitored. Today in our Brolo we cultivate the Pinot Noir grapes destined for our finest wines.
