A Visit to Villa Franciacorta with the Bianchi Family

In Lombardia, Italy, Villa Franciacorta produces estate grown vintage Franciacorta DOCG sparkling wines and is home to Villa Gradoni Charme & Nature, a renovated 16th century farmhouse and agriturismo. Villa Franciacorta’s evolution is thanks to Alessandro Bianchi, who in 1960 acquired land in the area and made a commitment to restore and renew the region with a focus on the production of sparkling wines. Alessandro’s daughter, Roberta Bianchi with her husband and sons continue his stewardship.
