Looking for impeccable combinations for the holiday menus? Franciacorta is the wine for you, chef's word.

Franciacorta, Michelin Italy's Destination Partner this year, interviewed the starred chefs on the themes of sustainability, Italian gastronomic excellence, but also on dishes recommended for parties in combination with Franciacorta.

Thanks to its different types, each with a very specific personality, Franciacorta is able to adapt to different needs and dishes, enhancing the aromaticity of the ingredients, softening the strong tastes and perfectly counterbalancing the fatty components.
Any examples to copy? THE tortellini in broth in combination with a Franciacorta Satèn, the classic spaghetti with clams spotted with Piennolo tomato in combination with a Franciacorta Rosé and it stockfish in combination with a Franciacorta Riserva.

To find out all the chefs' tips, appointments will be held on the official Franciacorta Instagram and YouTube pages throughout the month of December. Here is the calendar!
