Distillerie Franciacorta
The Company was founded in 1902 by Luigi Gozio (grandfather, on their father’s
side, of the three brothers Giuliano, Antonio and Luigi, who still run the company)
at Gussago, a town in the splendid hilly region of Franciacorta in the Province
of Brescia. Luigi Gozio began distilling according to traditional methods.
In 1930 the founder, whose business had originally been named “Distillerie
Gozio”, to distinguish himself from other distillers of the same name, “Gozio”,
added the word “Franciacorta”, a word that at the time was of no relevance
in terms of image and was used by nobody.
Since then, through three subsequent generations, the company has continued to expand
and evolve, while always cherishing and nurturing old traditions.
