The Franciacorta Cabochon Stellato 2012, presented in an elegant case, is a sublimated expression of Monte Rossa's viticulture, a renowned producer in the prestigious Franciacorta region. This sparkling wine is the result of meticulous selection of Chardonnay and Pinot Nero grapes, cultivated in the winery's vineyards on particularly well-suited land and favored by an ideal microclimate for high-quality viticulture.

The winemaking process is handled with great care: the grapes undergo a first fermentation in stainless steel tanks, while a portion of the Chardonnay ferments in French oak barrels. This is followed by a long maturation period on the lees, which for this vintage lasts over 80 months, imparting extraordinary complexity and a creamy texture.

To the eye, the Cabochon Stellato 2012 presents a bright golden yellow color, animated by a very fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it is a symphony of aromas: notes of ripe white-fleshed fruit, hints of bread crust and vanilla blend with nuances of almond and dried flowers, indicating impeccable maturation.

On the palate, it reveals an elegantly woven structure, balanced by fresh acidity and marked minerality that lead to a long and satisfying finish. This Cabochon Stellato is not only a refined choice for Franciacorta enthusiasts but also a wine that promises to evolve beautifully if properly stored.

Ideal for accompanying sophisticated dishes such as white truffles, oysters, or as the highlight of a special toast, the Franciacorta Cabochon Stellato 2012 from Monte Rossa offers a distinctive and memorable sensory experience. A true jewel in Monte Rossa's crown, it is a testament to exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail.
