Fiasconaro Traditional Panettone

The authentic character of Sicilian Christmas pastry

The story of the Fiasconaro family began in 1953 in Castelbuono, Sicily, in the heart of the Madonie mountains.

From its origins as a small family business, Fiasconaro has grown into one of the most recognised names in Italian pastry while preserving a strong connection to its Sicilian roots and to the tradition of naturally leavened baked goods.

The Fiasconaro Traditional Panettone is a classic expression of the Italian Christmas tradition, enriched with candied orange and raisins flavoured with Marsala DOP and Terre Siciliane Zibibbo Liquoroso IGP wines.

The combination gives the Panettone a distinctive Sicilian personality: the freshness and aromatic character of orange meet the sweetness of raisins and the complex nuances provided by the island's historic wines.

Soft, aromatic, and generous, it represents Fiasconaro's interpretation of one of Italy's most iconic festive specialities.

The candied orange brings freshness and fragrant citrus notes, while the wine-flavoured raisins add depth and an unmistakably Mediterranean character.

Contadi Castaldi Franciacorta Brùt

A refined and versatile expression of Franciacorta

Contadi Castaldi Franciacorta Brùt comes from Franciacorta, Lombardy, one of Italy's most prestigious territories for bottle-fermented sparkling wines.

Its style is lively, fragrant, balanced, and versatile, combining the elegance traditionally associated with Franciacorta with an accessible and contemporary personality.

The cuvée is composed of 80% Chardonnay, 10% Pinot Nero, and 10% Pinot Bianco. After the first vinification and maturation, the wine spends 20 to 26 months ageing on the lees, followed by a further 3 to 4 months after disgorgement.

In the glass, it shows a straw-yellow colour with greenish reflections and a fine, persistent perlage.

The nose is fresh and expressive, with floral notes of linden blossom, accompanied by nuances of citrus fruit, white peach, and green pepper.

On the palate, it is crisp, fresh, savoury, and refined, with a pleasantly persistent finish.

Why these two products were paired

The Fiasconaro Traditional Panettone and Contadi Castaldi Franciacorta Brùt create a Christmas selection centred on tradition, freshness, and Italian elegance.

The Panettone offers the soft richness of naturally leavened dough together with the aromatic sweetness of candied orange and raisins, while the Franciacorta introduces fine bubbles, freshness, and delicate notes of citrus fruit and white peach.

These citrus and fruit-driven profiles create a natural aromatic connection between the two products, while the wine's acidity and persistent perlage provide a fresh counterpoint to the richness of the Panettone.

The result is a festive selection that feels classic yet sophisticated, ideal for sharing during Christmas celebrations.

Most importantly, it brings together two different expressions of Italian tradition: Fiasconaro interprets the country's most iconic Christmas cake through the ingredients and personality of Sicily, while Contadi Castaldi expresses the elegance and winemaking heritage of Franciacorta.

From Sicily to Lombardy, it is a journey through craftsmanship, territory, and Italian taste.

Why it is an excellent corporate gift

The pairing of a Traditional Panettone and Franciacorta DOCG is immediately associated with celebration and Italian Christmas culture, while the choice of Fiasconaro and Contadi Castaldi gives the proposal a refined and premium identity.

• offering international recipients an authentic expression of Italian festive tradition;

The festive presentation of the Fiasconaro Traditional Panettone, paired with the elegant bottle of Contadi Castaldi Franciacorta Brùt, creates a sophisticated and immediately recognisable Christmas gift.

Above all, it is a corporate gift that communicates Italian style, tradition, craftsmanship, conviviality, and attention to detail.
