Wine is an idea, a philosophy.
An abstract form that becomes concrete reality, first inside the mind and then in the bottle.

Some say that the nuances of white pepper are what makes Nino Franco's Prosecco unique. Others insist on elegance, rich aromas and longevity, together with an extremely pleasant drink.

But the truth lies in the personalities of Primo and Silvia Franco, which meld into the mystery of the terroir, binding man, nature and wine in continuous exchange and revelation.

Nino Franco's Prosecco wines live according to imagination.

Before becoming sparkling wines, they are fruits of the mind generated by the experience and imagination of their makers. They arise from tastings, encounters, suggestions and – why not – bumps along the road. The labels of Nino Franco echo Primo's passion for architecture, Silvia's pursuit of beauty, and the taste for a Prosecco shaped from the personality of its vineyard, which does not hide its complex character but expresses a constant quest for excellence: to make «a wine you would like to drink».

now and forever

No wine deserves to wait before being opened. It must be good today as it will be in a decade.

There is a simple philosophy behind Nino Franco's wines: the pleasure of sparkling wine. One that does not need to wait. It is good now, uncorked a few months after bottling; and it will be surprising in a few years, thanks to its ability to withstand time, keeping its incredible freshness intact.

a delicate richness

We wanted the aromatic profile of our Prosecco to become more complex, similar to a basket of fresh fruit painted by Caravaggio.

Enriching without twisting, complex but not complicated.

The sensorial richness of Nino Franco's sparkling wines results from the prolonged stay of the base wines on lees from the first fermentation without undergoing decanting. An operation that requires utmost attention in the cellar, low temperatures and regular batonnages. The passage on the lees extracts noble components that enrich the wine’s identity.
