La Montina

La Montina is a historic Franciacorta estate in Monticelli Brusati, benefiting from a unique microclimate influenced by Lago d’Iseo. Originally owned by the Montini family in 1620, it was revived in 1987 by the Bozza brothers. The estate includes the 17th-century Villa Baiana, now home to the Remo Bianco Museum of Contemporary Art. A founding member of the Consorzio Franciacorta, La Montina follows strict Metodo Classico regulations, ensuring the highest quality. Grapes are hand-harvested, and secondary fermentation occurs naturally in the bottle, with minimum ageing of 18 months for non-vintage, 30 months for vintage, and 60 months for Riserva. The 1992 Zonation Study further refined Franciacorta’s vineyard practices, reinforcing the region’s reputation for world-class sparkling wines. La Montina remains dedicated to tradition, sustainability, and meticulous winemaking.
