Descrizione

Donna Cora Satèn Franciacorta DOCG from Tenuta Montenisa, underscored by the signature Marchese Antinori, presents a gentle, measured profile: very fine perlage and a creaminess that caresses the palate without being intrusive. The palate is soft yet balanced, with a restrained freshness that supports the structure and a lively salinity that lengthens the finish; overall it communicates precision and elegance more than ostentation, ideal for those seeking bubbles of sober, refined character. On the nose there are hints of white flowers and white-fleshed fruit, with a subtle note of freshly toasted bread that adds to the impression of cleanliness and finesse.

Presented in a gift box, it is perfect for aperitif but also pairs discreetly with delicate dishes: raw seafood, shellfish, lightly seasoned fish dishes, or fresh cheeses. It is a Franciacorta to be enjoyed young to appreciate its softness and liveliness, but its structure also makes it suitable for more contemplative moments, when you want a sparkling wine that can be a companion without overpowering.

Winery history

The estate’s winemaking origins are linked to the noble Della Gherardesca family (vineyards since the late 17th century). The property entered the Antinori holdings in the 1930s; the estate’s modern winemaking development took place from the late 1980s–1990s. First documented vintage of Vermentino at the estate: 1996.

Terroir and vineyards
