In the Heart of Franciacorta
Our Franciacorta
Castel Faglia
The winery, named after the castle of its former owner, Colonel Umberto Faglia, is located at 300 meters above sea level, in the heart of Franciacorta. From the top of the moraine-origin hill, vineyards stretch out across terraces perfectly exposed to the sun.
Castel Faglia embraces the principles of sustainability with commitment and passion. Care at every stage goes beyond the production of high-quality wines, extending to eco-friendly farming practices and the careful management of water and energy resources. The mindful use of soil and natural resources, combined with a thoughtful production philosophy, helps preserve the surrounding ecosystem, keeping the beauty of the Franciacorta landscape intact.

The production
Land and tradition
Creating a Franciacorta means respecting the land and enhancing its identity. Castel Faglia does it with care and dedication, overseeing every stage of production with the aim of preserving the most authentic expression of the territory.
With this goal in mind, meticulous attention to detail begins with:
- the cultivation of the vines, with the utmost respect for the ecosystem and vineyard, in order to maintain the grape’s natural aromatic characteristics;
- the harvest, carried out strictly by hand;
- the selection of the finest grape bunches;
- the gentle pressing, where only the first-press must (the “mosto fiore”) is retained to produce Franciacorta;
- the blending of the Cuvées, aiming for the perfect balance of finesse, complexity, and elegance.
