From this winery
  • Start up year: 1987
  • Oenologist: Rocco Marino
  • Bottles produced: 400.000
  • Hectares: 70
Since then, this small locality, which includes not only the vineyard lands but also the surrounding hill, has been called Montina. Passing through various hands over the centuries, by around 1970, the estate – in a state of serious neglect – was home to a convent of Dorotea’s Sisters, who later moved to Valcamonica. So it was in 1982: three of the seven Bozza brothers, namely Gian Carlo, Vittorio, and Alberto, purchased the property from the Dorotea’s Nuns in Contrada Baiana, 36 plot (about 12 hectares) of land including woods and vineyards, with a farmhouse and convent.

Their goal was to produce Franciacorta. The work in the vineyards went at the same pace with the construction of the cellar, completely buried in the hill and imperceptible from the outside, where aging galleries, vinification room, and barrel cellar were dug. Additional land was gradually added, reaching the current 72 hectares, spread across 7 municipalities in Franciacorta.

The cellar was also expanded in 2008 and today, in its entirety, has a storage capacity of approximately 3,000,000 bottles and extends over 7,450 m² underground,ensuring the lowest possible temperature variation throughout the year (around 13 - 16 °C), an optimal condition for the proper maturation of Franciacorta.
