Il Fascino della Via Francigena Lombarda | Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d'Italia | Scoop.it

La Via Francigena che attraversa la Lombardia, lascia il fiume Sesia dopo Vercelli e va incontro alla Pianura Padana della provincia di Pavia, attraversandola in direzione sud-est per circa centotrenta chilomentri fino a Corte Sant’Andrea, sotto Lodi.

Exploring Italian Sparkling Wine: Franciacorta - Vino in Love

Exploring Italian Sparkling Wine: Franciacorta - Vino in Love | Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d'Italia | Scoop.it

Franciacorta is a sparkling wine from Lombardy, Italy. Just like Trento DOC, Franciacorta is the Italian equivalent of French Champagne. The appellation Franciacorta was awarded DOCG status in 1995 and is exclusive to sparkling wines. Still wines (white, red and rosé) are labeled Curtefranca DOC instead.

The name Franciacorta literally translates to “Little France” however, the name actually derives from the Latin words curtes francae meaning the Courts of the Franks. The Frankish Empire, a Germanic People, once watched over the hills of the Franciacorta Valley.

The Satèn from Cascina Clarabella is of exceptional quality. Unfortunately it’s not widely available but it’s a real must-try so if you stumble over this wine make sure to buy all the remaining bottles. You won’t regret it. Promised.
