Product Description

Andrea Arici is one of the most highly praised growers in the area. He previously worked for esteemed producer Bellavista with legendary sparkling winemaker Mattia Vezzola, and at the tender age of 20, decided to recover some old terraced vineyards that his family owned that had been abandoned for some years. Keen to communicate his terroir, Andrea solely produces wines without added dosage, with full respect to the natural environment that flourishes around the vines. The terroir has perfectly draining active limestone, capable of giving great minerality and salinity to the wines. Andrea chooses to forgo dosage to give maximum transparency to his wines.

Colline della Stella Di Andrea Arici is a small family-run winery, established in 1997 in the eastern part of Franciacorta. The 15 hectares on which the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines are planted are characterised by active limestone with excellent drainage, which gives the wines great acidity and minerality.

This wine is a blend of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Noir that spends 6 months in steel on its fine lees before tirage, followed by 18 to 30 months of bottle aging on the lees. A further aging period of at least 3 months follows after disgorgement. Zero dosage leads to a fully dry traditional Franciacorta sparkling wine.
