The Franciacorta Rosé Millesimato Extra Brut is born in the vineyards of the Tenuta La Montina located between Lake Iseo and the morainic amphitheater of Franciacorta, in the province of Brescia. It is mainly produced with Pinot Noir grapes and a small part of Chardonnay, harvested and carefully selected by hand. After the classic vinification processes, the fermentation takes place by refermentation in the bottle according to the Classic Method, with aging on its lees for at least 30 months. The grapes used in blend are those of Chardonnay for 15%, and those of Pinot Noir for 85%. The aging of the wine develops in bottle for at least 30 months on the lees.
