Monogram
Monogram produces sparkling wines in Franciacorta, the prestigious DOCG in Lombardia known for méthode champenoise bottlings of remarkable finesse. The house focuses on Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco, the region's classical varieties, crafting wines of precision and minerality. The Franciacorta Cuvée Brut—a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco—anchors the portfolio, while the Cuvée Zero, made entirely from Chardonnay, offers a drier expression. The Cuvée Satèn, also Chardonnay-based, showcases the softer, creamier style that defines this particular Franciacorta classification. Wine Enthusiast has rated these releases, reflecting their standing within the region's competitive landscape. Monogram's work exemplifies the technical discipline and terroir-driven character that distinguish Franciacorta sparkling wines.
