Franciacorta DOCG Brut Bio (750 ml.) Ronco Calino
The Franciacorta Brut from Ronco Calino is the synthesis of the winery's philosophy. The moderate dosage enhances the fine aromas of Chardonnay and the backbone of Pinot Noir, sourced from vines about 23 years old grown in organic farming. The separate vinification for each parcel allows for the appreciation of its unique profile. Fermentation occurs in steel tanks, with a portion of the Chardonnay fermenting in French oak barrels. It matures for at least 30 months on the lees and an additional 6 months after disgorgement. Notes of red berries, wild strawberries, Golden apple, and blood orange. Hints of peony, mallow, and camellia, with spicy notes of vanilla and toasted hazelnut. Vertical and harmonious, it offers fruity sensations, supported in the finish by an elegant savoriness and a long persistence. Perfect as an aperitif with moderately aged cheeses and cured meats.

Ronco Calino
In a secluded and enchanting corner of Franciacorta, protected by a hill that once inspired the great pianist Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, lies Ronco Calino: a estate that harmoniously embodies nature, art, and a passion for wine. Here, where the sounds of the countryside blend with the contemplative silence of the vineyards, extend 10 hectares cultivated according to the principles of organic farming, the beating heart of a winery that has made quality its mission.
Founded in 1996 by Paolo Radici, a visionary entrepreneur and deep lover of wine, Ronco Calino is today synonymous with rare elegance in Franciacorta. The winery, nestled at the foot of the historic residence, is a place where time slows down, and every phase of production is marked by meticulous care, respect for nature, and artisanal patience.
The flagship grape is Chardonnay, but it is Pinot Noir that finds a surprising expression here. Except for the Satèn, this noble variety enters all cuvées, providing structure, complexity, and depth to the Franciacorta Ronco Calino. Each bottle rests on the lees well beyond the minimum times imposed by the Regulations, so that the wine can naturally develop its authentic personality.
The sugar dosage is minimal or absent, to enhance the true identity of the terroir and to value the work done in the vineyard. The result is signature sparkling wines, long-lived, harmonious, capable of telling the story of Franciacorta in a refined and modern key.

THE WINE
The Franciacorta Brut by Ronco Calino is the synthesis of the winery's philosophy. The moderate dosage enhances the fine aromas of Chardonnay and the backbone of Pinot Noir, coming from vines about 23 years old cultivated in organic farming. The separate vinification for each parcel allows for the uniqueness of its profile to shine. Fermentation occurs in steel tanks, with part of the Chardonnay fermenting in French oak barrels. It ages for at least 30 months on the lees and an additional 6 months after disgorgement. Notes of small red fruits, wild strawberries, Golden apple, and blood orange. Hints of peony, mallow, and camellia, with spicy notes of vanilla and toasted hazelnut. Vertical and harmonious, it offers fruity sensations, supported in the finish by an elegant savoriness and long persistence. Perfect as an aperitif with moderately aged cheeses and cured meats.
THE COMPANY
Ronco Calino is located in an extraordinary corner of Franciacorta, sheltered by the hill where the pianist Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli wanted to build his home. This oasis, surrounded by 10 hectares of organic vineyard and immersed in the sounds and colors of nature, was in 1996 a source of inspiration for Paolo Radici, a businessman in love with wine. At the foot of the residence, the winery was established: here, time seems to slow down. Care, rigor, and the ability to wait are the premises for creating Franciacorta that have authenticity, elegance, and longevity as their stylistic hallmark. Among the varieties grown, Chardonnay dominates, but it is Pinot Noir that finds its ideal place. Except for the Satèn, this magnificent grape participates, in fact, in the cuvée of all the Franciacorta in the collection, which from Ronco Calino rests on the lees for at least one year longer than required by the regulations. The sugar dosage is moderate, if not absent, so that the true personality of the wine can emerge.
