The Winery’s Story
" The history of Villa, an ancient village in the heart of Franciacorta and the first residential area of Monticelli Brusati, is lost in the mists of time Accredited historical research, carried out in the Monticelli Brusati area, has brought to light traces of noble families who populated this place since the 15th century. Fossils of ancient seeds speak of viticulture dating back to Roman times; subsequently, remains of tombs tell of the presence of the Gauls. The residential nucleus, with the name Ela, Villa in the local dialect of the time, took shape and evolved in the following centuries, so much so that in 1850 it appeared in the Napoleonic maps, which highlighted the very few residential nuclei present at that time, including precisely the ancient Borgo Villa. The destiny of this land and this village, where important red wines have always been produced, changes definitively when Alessandro Bianchi, founder and owner of the historic winery, falls in love with it."
