From this winery
  • Start up year: 1977
  • Oenologist: Cesare Ferrari, Alessandro Santini
  • Bottles produced: 380.000
  • Hectares: 67
In the holographic will of Count Ignazio de Terzi Lana dated 15 June 1893, six months before his death in Borgonato di Corte Franca, a detailed list of the properties left to the nobles of the time, to the Church, but above all to Francesco Berlucchi, consort of Giustina de Terzi Lana, the Count's daughter, was found.

From the love between Francesco and Giustina, Ignazio, the first-born son, and Antonio Berlucchi, the second-born son, were born. On the death of his father Francesco, the eldest son Ignazio inherited the historical palace of the Lana-Berlucchi family, while the second-born Antonio inherited the Casa delle Colonne and a set of agricultural plots particularly suited to the cultivation of vines. Antonio founded the farm in 1927, which he then left to his five children, siblings Francesco, Gabriella, Marcello, Roberto and Pia Donata Berlucchi.

In 1977, the siblings began to produce Franciacorta, initiating the historic and current collaboration with oenologist Cesare Ferrari; on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of production, the Freccianera millesimati line was born: Millesimo 2007, a limited series of 3,000 bottles destined to be released on the market after 6 years of ageing on the lees.

The arrow shot from the medieval past that the family's palaces and vineyards recount, arrives today, with the unchanged black colour, from the first label of 1977.
