Arcari + Danesi Franciacorta e SoloUva

On the third weekend of September, Arcari + Danesi hosts the second event of the year with Friends in Wine, a reunion of our projects in a single, small tasting table. A day dedicated to tasting, discovery, and above all, conviviality, featuring wines from Arcari + Danesi, SoloUva, and Posapiano gathered for the occasion. In the glass, you will find: Arcari + Danesi Franciacorta Satèn 2021 50% Pinot Blanc and 50% Chardonnay, recently released. Arcari + Danesi Coro delle Monache 2020 100% Pinot Noir vinified in white, in absolute preview. SoloUva Franciacorta Rosé 100% Pinot Noir. SoloUva Open Sparkling Wine SoloUva Method, 100% Pinot Noir vinified in white. Posapiano Grace – Slave to Love Sparkling Wine SoloUva Method, Schiava and Barbera, Zero Dosage Rosé. We will be open from 11 AM to 4 PM, for a relaxed and convivial cellar tasting: with us, everything is easy & friendly. And, along with the wines, there will be a delicious local salami sandwich. Because good things don't need too many frills. If the weather permits, we will taste outdoors, in front of the terraced vineyard on Montorfano. Otherwise, we'll all move... into the cave. 📍 Arcari + Danesi and SoloUva Cellar Via sul Montorfano snc, Coccaglio (BS) €35 per person Info: 348 5581508 Reservation required on the website. Sunday, September 20, the cellar will be closed. We look forward to toasting the start of autumn together, among Franciacorta, SoloUva Method bubbles, vineyards, and good company.

The tasting includes three different expressions of Franciacorta, all vintage and produced according to the SoloUVA method, meaning no added sugars, with long yeast fermentation, from a single year and a single harvest, followed by further aging in the bottle after disgorgement. The Franciacorta wines in the tasting represent our current production: Dosage Zero – our must-have, produced every year, the purest expression of the SoloUVA Method. Satèn – probably the most representative wine of our production: the first Franciacorta made exclusively from grapes from the upper part of Monte Orfano, where our company is located. Extra Brut Coro delle Monache – the most unique wine we produce at the moment: vintage 2015, 100% Pinot Noir vinified in white, with a yeast aging of 72 months. The tasting is preceded by a vineyard walk, weather permitting, to tell you about the peculiarities of the area and the territory where the Arcari + Danesi vineyards grow, on the hill of Monte Orfano. You can request a visit even if not already scheduled, for groups of a minimum of 4 people. When Weekdays: only in the morning at 10:00 AM, based on calendar availability.

The mood here is very easy & friendly, the important thing is to enjoy being together.

SoloUva was born as a project dedicated exclusively to a production method that does not involve the use of exogenous sugars, neither for the sparkling process nor for disgorgement. We produce Franciacorta DOCG and sparkling wines (Open) as a direct and immediate expression of this production philosophy. The SoloUva vineyards are located in the heart of Franciacorta, in the Municipality of Adro, on the hills of the morainic amphitheater, a central area of our territory, and since 2020 we have been managing 4 hectares of Pinot Noir vineyard in Borgo Priolo (Pv). The wines produced are non-vintage and represent a true identity card of the SoloUVA method, a business card designed to clearly, accessibly, and coherently tell its principles. The tasting includes four wines, all produced according to the SoloUVA Method, without external sugars or yeasts, with spontaneous fermentations and grapes exclusively from our vineyards. Franciacorta Brut – 100% Chardonnay, a fresh and balanced expression of the SoloUVA Method. Franciacorta Dosaggio Zero – 100% Chardonnay, a more essential and direct version, without any sugar addition. Franciacorta Rosé – 100% Pinot Noir, vertical, structured, and distinctive. Open – 100% Pinot Noir, sparkling wine obtained from grapes from our vineyards in Oltrepo. The tasting is preceded, weather permitting, by a walk in the vineyard, to tell the landscape context and the territory. It is possible to request the visit even if not already scheduled, for groups of at least 4 people.
