Freccianera presents a weekend of experiences among vineyards, gourmet cuisine, art and astrology

Borgonato (BS), August 3, 2026 – Not just tastings, but a true journey into the culture of Franciacorta. On the occasion of the Franciacorta in Cantina Festival – scheduled on September 18, 19 and 20, 2026, Freccianera invites the public to experience three days where wine, landscape and local flavors intertwine in a single experience.

The heart of the event will be the Freccianera Experience, on September 19 and 20, the historic courtyard of the cellar will be transformed into an elegant salon of taste, where visitors can alternate the guided tour discovering the Classic Method with Franciacorta tastings and access the gastronomic offerings by some of the area’s finest establishments. From the specialties of Norcineria Carai to the original creations of Cru Caviar, to the famous cannoncini prepared on the spot by Serge Milano, each tasting will be designed to enhance the encounter between cuisine and fine bubbles.

By reservation, includes complimentary guided tour through the history and secrets of the classic method. Tours every hour from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

For those wishing to immerse themselves in the vineyard landscape, Freccianera also offers the Picnic among the Rows: a gourmet box to collect at the cellar and enjoy freely among the vines, accompanied by a bottle of Franciacorta B25. An authentic and relaxed way to experience the territory, among nature, conviviality and local flavors.

Gourmet picnic box cost for 2 people: €60, to be reserved and collected at the cellar between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM.

Enthusiasts will also be able to participate in the Masterclasses led by the Freccianera winemaker, four exclusive experiences dedicated to the cellar’s most representative wines and tastings normally not available to the public, from the bases of the most recent harvest to vertical tastings of iconic labels.

Closing the weekend will be an unconventional appointment: Sunday, September 20, in the evocative setting of Casa delle Colonne, on the cellar’s estate, astrologer journalist Stefano Vighi, known for his collaborations with the most important national lifestyle magazines, will accompany guests in a meeting dedicated to the curious relationship between wine and zodiac signs, for a tasting that combines entertainment and conviviality.
