From this winery
  • Start up year: 2012
  • Oenologist: Giulio Salti, Adriano Zago, Marco Benedini
  • Bottles produced: 60.000
  • Hectares: 10
Making quality wines, innovative and traditional together, is the goal we set ourselves from the beginning , in 2011, when we bought the farm from the Conti Bettoni Cazzago family. The name of the winery, 1701 , is due to the first vintage of a wine produced by the “Brolo” : an evocative domestic vineyard surrounded by 11th century walls. History repeats itself, because today from that same vineyard - in the splendid setting of Palazzo Bettoni - we obtain an extraordinary Blanc de Noirs.

Our is a story of lands and people, united between them by ideals, passions and emotions. Like the rediscovery of nature, the love for agriculture, the biodynamic choice as an approach to the earth and to life in general, the understanding and enhancement of what a territory can express through the enhancement of its biodiversity.

To confirm our beliefs and our daily commitment to put them into practice, in 2015 the winery obtained the organic certification , and in 2016 the biodynamic certification of Demeter : for the first time in a winery in Franciacorta .

We are also part of two important natural wine realities: “ Renaissance des Appelations” , the association created by Nicolas Joly which brings together about 160 producers in the world who adhere to biodynamics; and “Vi.Te - Vignaioli e Territori” , for those who believe in wines as an authentic expression of the territory.
