Regional Information
The territory of Franciacorta, from Latin "franchae curtes", which means "exempted from paying duties", is a section of the province of Brescia. The physical conformation characterised by rolling hills was shaped by glacial action. The soil, composed of glacial moraines consisting of gravel and sand over limestone, is ideal for the cultivation of grapes and winemaking. The weather is mild and constant due to its location in the southern foothills of the Alps and the tempering presence of large lakes.
