SoloUva is not only the name of a brilliant and emerging winery in Franciacorta but also the pride of a project shared with other producers, gathered around the name of Terra Uomo Cielo. The SoloUva winery was in fact born from the young founder Andrea Rutelli's adhesion to the project and collaboration with the Camossi and Arcari Danesi wineries. The goal of the project is the promotion and enhancement of a new sparkling wine method that can best express the terroir of Franciacorta. Convinced of how the Champenoise Method, as imported from France, cannot fully represent the territorial typicality of Franciacorta, the protagonists of Metodo SoloUva have developed a substantial variation on the Metodo Classico: the sugar added in the draft and dosage phases is replaced with must and reserve grape juice. The need to use sugar at the winemaking stage is averted by harvesting grapes at full phenolic maturity. Thus, the SoloUva method consists of abolishing exogenous sugars and replacing them with the natural sugar of the grape. The purpose is to safeguard and define the identity of Franciacorta, creating sparkling wines that can no longer be assimilated to Champagne, because they are produced by a substantially different method. These are Franciacorta sparkling wines in which fruity aromas and tannic structure are more evident. The full maturity of the grapes used ensures a full, juicy sip rich in primary aromas. Produced no longer by the Classical Method then but by the SoloUva Method.
