It 'was gems online very interesting debate that has developed recently on this blog about the vocation to the production of classic method gems online of quality of Franciacorta, vocation challenged, not always convincingly and often over the top, especially from some readers intervened, several gems online times, in the discussion. On the topic, taking gems online up a post published here on Vino al Vino, the public today, with great pleasure, the reflections of a friend who works in Franciacorta and Franciacorta knows. I speak of his friend John Arcari, animator of the blog Terra man sky, and wine talent scout as I have repeatedly called, that of Franciacorta and Champagne, or rather, the incongruous, unjustified to call into question the historic French wine area, when we speak of Franciacorta, offers gems online us a number of considerations gems online very acute. I hope to serve food, in a constructive and not shoot at point-blank and a priori positions, a lively discussion. gems online
"Too often, hearing about Franciacorta, you meet people who are looking for an immediate comparison with the Champagne. Natural, I'm thinking at first considering the similarities that characterize the production of wine. Natural, because it is from a few years in Italy that produce wine with this method. Natural, because in the years of the "Milan to drink" called everything the sparkling "sciampagn Italian". There are people who still believe that Chardonnay sparkling born. We are still "immature" in Italy for this type of wine, and it has proven just by looking for this comparison. We produce it for about a century, we drink it carefully gems online fifteen and criticize or claim bragging rights to fourteen, in full "Italian style" (I speak of any kind of classic method in the world, not only to that produced in Italy). I teach French, with their highly ability to "territory" that distinguishes them for centuries, it is only the territory, seen as a container of wealth gems online and culture, the only thing not replicable elsewhere. Their centuries gems online of experience have brought gems online us a sense of the area that is inside a bottle of wine. Territory that always, is attributable to a wine. A territory born as a political border, and that over time has changed under the lash that the economy has produced, but of which the French peasants have always defended the identity. gems online Champagne is a forward-looking example of economic and cultural progress of a community, of a people. It is maintained and evolved over time, because the ethics of producing wine and make territory was deeply rooted in rural culture. They have understood before us, if Franciacorta Champagne-two and a half centuries before. Have grasped the need to unite while remaining independent entities, have been able to protect the territory and exploit the fruits of their labor, so perceptibly inseparable from the land. This can not happen again. It can happen that the peasantry may become architect of a movement for the protection and development linked to the future of a territory, as it was in the past. At least not in Italy, where in the last fifty years working the land was the most overused, to the benefit of a land consumption absurd. The power farmer has lost power. Franciacorta, is trying to do what the French have done long ago. It settles in a territory, trying to understand the potential and abilities and then you try to create a "system area". What people believe that God created the heaven and the earth, the man and then the wine regions? In Franciacorta wine is always produced as in many other areas, a wine different from now because the son of a rural culture different, gems online that "slow" to evolve in the form we know today. The Nineties were the emblem of this change. The farmer liked the wine producing company nearby but that was very different gems online from his, so he began to try it too. The example, aided by the success gems online that consumers attributed to the product, gems online has been followed by many to reach the current territorial uniformity. They changed their crops, have experienced and have realized that the best wine can be produced in this area are the bubbles. It is an opinion as another course, but supported by indisputable gems online condivisio
