The Franciacorta Prima Cuvée Brut MAGNUM by Monte Rossa is an excellent example of Italian winemaking mastery in the field of classic method sparkling wines. This Franciacorta is a harmonious blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Nero, and Pinot Bianco, meticulously selected from the finest vineyard plots managed by the Monte Rossa winery, located in the enchanting territory of Franciacorta, in Lombardy.
Prima Cuvée stands out for its elegance and finesse, achieved through a particularly careful fermentation and maturation process. After the initial fermentation in steel tanks, the wine is bottled with the addition of yeasts and sugars for a second fermentation, followed by at least 24 months of aging on the lees. During this period, the wine develops complexity, structure, and the fine perlage that sets it apart.
Visually, the Franciacorta Prima Cuvée Brut exhibits a lively straw yellow color with golden reflections and a persistent mousse. On the nose, it offers an intriguing and complex bouquet with notes of white flowers, green apple, and subtle hints of bread crust, typical of extended aging on the lees. On the palate, the wine is fresh and well-balanced, with splendid acidity leading to a long and pleasantly savory finish.
The MAGNUM version of this Franciacorta not only ensures a better evolution of the wine due to the optimal ratio between the wine volume and the cork surface but is also perfect for special occasions, serving as a central element in grand celebrations or important dinners.
Recommended pairings include light appetizers, fish or seafood dishes, and it can be particularly enchanting as an aperitif.
The attention to detail, elegance, and quality make the Franciacorta Prima Cuvée Brut MAGNUM by Monte Rossa a top choice for those seeking a high-level Italian sparkling wine.
