Falstaff: outstanding ratings for Monzio Compagnoni.
We are proud to announce that Monzio Compagnoni Franciacorta Satèn Brut 2022 has been awarded an outstanding 94 points in the Falstaff Sparkling Special Tasting.
An expression of elegance, precision and finesse, this Franciacorta Satèn reflects the distinctive character and craftsmanship of Monzio Compagnoni.
A Franciacorta of exceptional refinement, made for those who appreciate the art of sparkling wine. 🥂
Franciacorta Satèn Brut Millesimato is not the classic Saten. It’s Monzio Compagnoni’s boldest interpretation of a product known for its softness, elegance and refinement.
Grapes: 100 % Chardonnay
Color: very deep, thick golden yellow.
Bouquet: It has a rich spectrum of scents, it is enveloping and almost fat without any cloyingness; there are sensations of vanilla, biscuit, liquorice and aniseed.
Taste: In perfect correspondence with the nose, the taste is also full, rich, generous and juicy; all well balanced by an acid base that allows the sweet sensations (of ripe fruit) to express themselves without tiring the palate.
30 years of work, experience and passion
In a cellar surrounded by nature, among the splendid hills of Franciacorta, the passion for wine was born. Here, where the climate is mild and the terroir is inimitable, the winery has brought technical wisdom and entrepreneurial art to create a dynamic, fresh and true collection.
Authenticity, quality, tradition: thanks to the combination of these elements, these Franciacorta and other wines have a concrete, recognizable character, which perfectly embodies winery’s philosophy.
30 hectares in the Franciacorta region with vineyards of Chardonnay, Pinot Nero and Pinot Bianco in Adro, Nigoline and Cologne.
3 hectares of Merlot, Cabernet and Moscato in Brusaporto.
