Monzio Compagnoni Franciacorta Brut Millesimato 2016

Perlage

Abundant mousse and extremely fine perlage.

Colour

Straw yellow with a slight hint of green.

Bouquet

What stands out are the clear, sustained scents of bread crust, biscuit, dried fruit (toasted almonds in particular) alongside more delicate hints of golden apples and pears, with remarkable richness and envelopment.

Flavour

The fresh and acidic sensations are balanced by a softness of vanilla and, more so on the nose, of ripe apple, which fills and accompanies the palate for a long time; the finish in the mouth, however, returns to become bold and gritty.

Pairing

Ideal as an aperitif, it is also an excellent accompaniment to elaborate dishes - with sauces and bases, but without tomatoes - based on fish and white meat.

From this winery:

Monzio Companioni: The farm was officially opened in late 1987 from an idea of my father's Adriano, who decided to invest in the hills of Dine In, the birthplace of my mother. Here, in the vicinity of our properties, rose Emnetta's hill where, after ...
