ARCARDI + DANESI (FRANCIACORTA)
Arcari + Danesi was founded in 2006 by Giovanni Arcari and Nico Danesi. The winery is located in the township of Coccaglio. The cellar was carved out of the south side of Mount Orfano, a geological landmark that looks out over the border of Franciacorta to the south.Arcari + Danesi have roughly five hectares planted to vine, mostly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with a small amount of Pinot Blanc. The vineyards are located in Coccaglio, with terraced vineyards adjacent to the winery, and in the township of Capriolo.
Arcari + Danesi represents the synthesis of 15 years of work that Giovanni Arcari and Nico Danesi, relying only on their strengths, devoted to Franciacorta.‘We acted contrary to what is usually done by other recently founded wineries: we first tried to understand the potential of the area, then we began to experiment. For us it was crucial to create a new standard rather than imitate an existing one (Champagne, for example).
