Although today Franciacorta is mostly known for its sparkling wines we wanted to recuperate an old family tradition of the very important red wine. We left it for a long time in oak barrels, never put it in barrique, and we created only a few numbered bottles. Our Casa delle Colonne Red pays homage to our lovely ancient home where our mother, artistically gifted, created a wonderful Classic Italian Graden with style and a wonderful happy life for us all. This wine Is a tribute to our extraordinary parents, to the sweet memories of our youth and to our family tradition.
