Descrizione

Conte Aymo of Tenuta Montenisa, signed by Marchese Antinori, is a boxed Franciacorta DOCG that conveys understated elegance. The perlage is fine and regular, while the aromatic profile suggests ripe white fruit and small flowers, with a hint of bread crust that adds depth. The intensity is restrained but precise: freshness and minerality support the sip and maintain balance, while the bubbles uphold the texture without overpowering it, offering a sense of composure and palate clarity.

On the palate it reveals well-calibrated creaminess and a lively acidity that lead to a persistent, slightly saline finish. It is perfect for an aperitif and gently accompanies seafood dishes, shellfish, risottos and fresh cheeses; it remains versatile enough for more structured but soft courses. Serve very cold and open shortly before serving: the presentation box also makes it an elegant choice for a gift or for convivial moments when precision and pleasure in the glass are sought.

Winery history

The Antinori family has been connected to winemaking for centuries and is recorded as active in the wine trade as early as 1385. The "Marchese Antinori" label is among the winery's historic names; since the 2011 vintage the Chianti Classico Riserva "Marchese Antinori" has been produced exclusively from grapes from Tenuta Tignanello, one of the family's most representative estates.

Production philosophy

It combines respect for tradition and the land with technical innovation: vineyard care, ampelographic research and careful winemaking practices to enhance the expression of Sangiovese and the historic parcels of Chianti Classico.

Terroir and vineyards

Production is firmly rooted in Chianti Classico. The Tenuta Tignanello estate is located on the hills between the Greve and Pesa valleys; the soils are calcareous-marly, which contribute to the wine's character.
