WINE DESCRIPTION

Monte Rossa Sansevè Satèn Brut is a delightful sparkling white wine. Crafted in the renowned appellation of Franciacorta, Italy, this wine is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes grown in exceptional vineyards. The vineyard features a unique terroir, characterized by its limestone-rich soil that adds a chalky complexity to the wine. The winemaking process uses the traditional method with an initial fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by a second fermentation in the bottle. This wine uses less sugar for the second fermentation resulting in less pressure and smaller bubbles with a silkier texture. The name Satèn is Italian for silk in reference to this texture. The resulting wine is elegant and refined, with a creamy texture and fine bubbles. Its style is characterized by a harmonious balance of freshness and complexity, making it a perfect choice for any celebration or special occasion.

ORIGINS

Winery: Monte Rossa

Region: Lombardy

Lombardy is a region in the north of Italy, located in the foothills of the Alps. With a long history of winemaking, Lombardy is one of the most prolific wine regions in Italy, producing a wide range of styles from sparkling to still wines. The history of winemaking in Lombardy dates back to the Roman Empire, when the region was known as Cisalpine Gaul. During this period, the Romans planted vineyards and developed winemaking techniques that are still used today. In the Middle Ages, Lombardy was an important center of winemaking, with many monasteries producing wine for religious ceremonies. In the 19th century, Lombardy was one of the first regions in Italy to embrace modern winemaking techniques, such as the use of oak barrels and the introduction of new grape varieties.
