History	The Montenisa Estate is located in the heart of Franciacorta, around the Borgo di Calino, near Lake Iseo. In 1158, the hamlet was ceded by the bishop of Brescia to a local noble family, and around the end of the nineteenth century Lavinia Calini, who married Gaetano Maggi, inherited the property, which will always remain part of the patrimony of the noble Brescian family. In 1999 the Marchesi Antinori and Conti Maggi families agreed on the management of the land surrounding the manor house, with the aim of producing a great Franciacorta from these noble vineyards.
Location	Cazzago S. Martino (BS)
Vinification	Whole bunches of Chardonnay were directly subjected to a soft pressing. The must 'flower,' that is, that obtained from the first pressing, was subjected to the first alcoholic fermentation which took place partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in barriques. In the spring of the following year the wine began the second process of fermentation in the bottle and subsequent contact with yeasts, for a period of at least 30 months. ll remuage was carried out manually For the expression of its natural fragrant notes, dégorgement was carried out without dosage."
Aging	After dégorgement, the bottles rested for at least three months before release.
