During the vinification the musts are separated into two fractions: free-run must, which has the best qualitative characteristics and which is used for the production of Franciacorta and second pressing must which is not destined for bottling.

The Ferghettina farm is known for its particular square bottle, created to obtain the "squaring of the circle". The unique shape of the bottle, patented by Matteo, Roberto's son, allows Franciacortas aged on the lees to have a wine-yeast contact surface up to 2.5 times greater than a round bottle. The inner side of the bottle, in fact, is flat, allowing for a greater storage area for the yeasts. This results in a greater release of manno-proteins and yeast lysate, which enrich the wine in terms of aromatic components.
