History narrates that this castle gave refuge to the great poet Dante Alighieri during his exile and who, inspired by the landscape, wrote some of the verses included in his Purgatory.
In the 1500s, the family moved to Capriolo, continuing the tradition of wine cultivation and where the headquarters is now. In the 16th Century The Lantieris were already famous for their wine production and appreciated suppliers to the courts of the Ganzagas in Mantua, and those of Ferrara and Milan, with their “Rubino di Corte Franca”, a forerunner of the wines produced today.
The winery can be reached by a characteristic path through long rows of vines, and from its crenellated terrace offers a magnificent view of the Franciacorta amphitheatre. Here, there are the ancient cellars with their 16th-century vaulted ceilings, and the modern buildings where the wine-making takes place using the most up-to-date and advanced technologies. The silicious clayey terrain of the vineyards is particularly rich in gravel and calcareous material making ideal for the cultivation of grapes. The Franciacorta wines are produced exclusively by using the hand-picked grapes where the greatest attention is paid to obtaining healthy fruit brought to perfect ripening.
All stages of production, from pressing to fermentation in the bottle, to “remuage” and “dégorgement”, are carried out following their philosophy of maximising the quality and integrity of the product. The constant result of absolute excellence can be perceived in all their wines, distinguished by their freshness and mineral content, integrally expressing the aromas and fruitiness of the grapes. Persuasive, enveloping, elegant, generous in harmonious and complex sensations. Tradition, passion and renewal are the values behind this winery in reaching numerous prestigious awards. Read more
