The symbol of elegance
The Red Heron
The desire to create something unique is a journey shaped by time, dedication, and resilience. Our journey has led us to the noble lands of Franciacorta, where we encountered the majesty of the red heron, the symbol of our Centinari brand.
A symbol of balance and grace, of elusive and demanding nature, and of the pursuit of excellence that defines a line of sparkling wines unlike any other, created for those who appreciate the refined elegance of a pleasure reserved for a select few.

Our distinctive elements
in the vineyard and winery
in the vineyard and winery
In the vineyard and winery, we employ a range of distinctive techniques and practices. Some of these are the result of expertise gained in other fields—a blend of knowledge and experiences that is integral to our history and elevates the quality of our wines. Others arise from our unwavering attention to every stage of the winemaking process.

The location of the vineyards
The grapes from our vineyards express a wide range of nuances in the glass, thriving in a
microclimate with marked diurnal temperature shifts that enhance their aromatic profile.

Leaf thinning
In the vineyard, shortly before flowering, we use an agronomic technique that enhances the aromatic profile. Removing some leaves triggers a natural response in the vine, causing it to shed part of its flowers. This thinning results in looser clusters with more widely spaced berries and thicker skins, leading to greater aromatic intensity

The grape harvest
Each cluster is carefully hand-picked to ensure that only the finest grapes make it into our wines. The meticulous care involved in manual harvesting, combined with the use of small containers, helps maintain the grapes’ integrity and freshness.

Bâtonnage in bottle
Once a month, after secondary fermentation, the cellar master gently stirs the lees in each bottle to prevent them from settling. This process prevents the development of unwanted odors that could mask the wine’s fine aromas and compromise its purity and finesse.

The long aging
Our Franciacorta wines mature on the lees for an exceptionally long time, well beyond the regulatory requirements—a testament to the quality of our grapes and the remarkable aging potential of our wines.
