Franciacorta

Franciacorta is famous for the homonym sparkling wine with DOCG status.

Other DOC wines produced in this region are called Terre di Franciacorta and are divided into two categories: a Burgundy-style Bianco based either on Chardonnay or Pinot bianco or a blend of both, and a Bordeaux-style Rosso based on either Cabernet Franc or Cabernet Sauvignon or both, and Merlot, with smaller amounts of Nebbiolo and Barbera.
