La Montina’s Estates are located in Monticelli Brusati, in the extreme north-eastern part of Franciacorta, near a large morainic amphitheatre where paved roads end and the woody Mugnina Valley begins. The La Montina Franciacorta AC Milan DOCG Extra Brut NV is produced through an agreement between La Montina and AC Milan. This limited release is in the team’s red and black colours and encased in a gift box The grapes come from vineyards located in recent shallow morainic soil with pebbles, particularly suitable for producing fresh grapes with good acidity. The hand-picked bunches, full of their organoleptic characteristics, follow the same procedure as the basic Franciacorta Brut with selection of the first fractions obtained by pressing. Franciacorta Extra Brut has a light yellow colour with greenish reflections and a fine perlage surrounded by a delightful crown. In the mouth it is dry, immediate, with lively freshness and good sapidity and minerality. The fragrance is ample but with typical hints of citrus flowers and fresh fruit. Ideal as an aperitif with oysters, raw shrimps, tempura and Grana Padano.
