Franciacorta Millesimati are obtained with at least 85% of grapes harvested in the year indicated on the bottle, generally produced in the best vintages . The Millesimati are enhanced with longer refinements than the non-vintage, so much so that at least 37 months must pass from the harvest to be put on the market.

These Franciacorta wines have a gustatory profile that clearly reflects the climatic characteristics of the vintage and the qualitative expressions of the grapes of that specific vintage.

The Consortium for the protection of Franciacorta evaluates the last vintages as follows: 2007 (4 stars), 2008 (4 stars), 2009 (4 stars), 2010 (3½ stars), 2011 (5 stars) , 2012 (4 stars), 2013 (4 stars), 2014 (3½ stars), 2015 (3½ stars), 2016 (4½ stars).
