A TASTE OF TIME

The Franciacorta Festival by Antica Fratta.

The Franciacorta Festival returns on September 18, 19, and 20. Antica Fratta opens its cellars to enthusiasts for an experience featuring conviviality, tastings, and refined food pairings.

“A Taste of Time” is our invitation to slow down and embark on a journey where wine culture, history, and refined conviviality come together.

 

The experience begins with a guided visit to our new barrel cellar, followed by a tour through the galleries of our 19th-century winery carved into the rock. Here, silence accompanies the slow aging of our Franciacorta wines, while the Traditional Method comes to life through craftsmanship, knowledge, and dedication.

At the end of the tour, guests will be welcomed into the villa's garden for a walk-around tasting, designed to be enjoyed freely and at your own pace. A convivial moment to explore our wines and flavors, engage with our sommeliers, and discover the distinctive qualities that make each cuvée an authentic expression of the Franciacorta terroir.

Wines available for tasting:
Essence Nature 2021 Magnum | Essence Satén 2019 Magnum
Essence Rosé 2021 Magnum | Riserva Quintessence 2015 Magnum

Complementing the tasting will be a selection of gourmet creations by Lanzani Bottega & Bistrot, showcasing the finest local ingredients through a series of carefully curated bites designed to enhance the character of our Franciacorta wines.
