The company's history reflects that of wines. Since 1986, Enrico Gatti winery has been producing Franciacorta with grapes grown mainly in the Erbusco area, Brescia.

Wine is "alive" and constantly evolving, so the company has tried to create an ideal space in the cellar that guarantees optimal conditions for vinification and conservation. Underground and thermo-conditioned, the cellar is equipped with tanks that have a computerised temperature control system—modern winemaking techniques with total respect for the raw material.
