I tasted it some years ago in NYC…

@Gary I’m not the author of the Franciacorta article but I hosted the PDF on my server. It’s probably the best stand-alone entry on Franciacorta out there…

@Vinogirl thanks for stopping by as always…

@Tom I love that you call me Do (Edoardo “Do” Bianchi is one of my alter egos). And, yes, the Orsolani… killer wine…

@Adrian Treviso is one of my favorite places on earth. LA, not so much… but still holds a place in my heart…

@Tracie B it’s so thrilling to think that in less than a month we’ll board a plane and head for San Diego and our wedding… I love you…

@Sgt. Sassafrass forward I’m heavy, backward I am not. What am I?

In this country, Italian sparklers clearly don’t have the prestige of Champagne, and that’s unfortunate given the likes of Ca’del Bosco. I think it would be great to dig a bit deeper into Franciacorta. I think it rivals Champagne, and even my hardcore wino friends don’t know much about it. Beyond Ca’del Bosco, it’d be great to get more of your recommendations, in difference price ranges, etc. Also check out the photo with Maurizio Zanella, Donato, and Eric at the last Tre Bicchieri in SF. http://www.chevsky.com/2009/03/gambero-rosso-tre-bicchieri-2009.html

Thanks for the link and kudos also for mentioning the Orsolani sparkling Erbaluce. I tasted the 2004 Cuvee Tradizione Brut Gran Riserva 2004 with Gian Luigi Orsolani in Torino this past November and was extremely impressed.

I’ll keep an eye out for the Camossi Rosé based on your recommendation – sounds great!

Beautiful photo of Cartizze, by the way.

Happy New Year to Tracie and you!
