Cantine Monfort Trento Riserva Le General Dallemagne Extra Brut 2020

Cantine Monfort’s Le Général Dallemagne Extra Brut 2020 is a distinguished Trento DOC Riserva made by the traditional method from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Aged for 64 months on its lees, it combines fine, persistent bubbles and alpine freshness with a rich, creamy texture. Once kept within the historic cellars of Palazzo Monfort, it reflects a vision for Trentino sparkling wine shaped by memory and innovation.

Tasting Notes
Bright golden-yellow in the glass, with a fine, persistent bead. The nose brings together elegant notes of bread crust and warm vanilla with a delicate hint of citrus. On the palate, it is dry, full-bodied and rounded, balancing natural creaminess with lively alpine freshness and a mineral edge. Its 64 months of lees aging give it notable aromatic depth; further aging potential is not specified.

Production
The Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes come from hillside vineyards around Trento and Pergine Valsugana, at elevations of 400–600 metres. Trained using the Guyot system, the vines grow in clay-rich porphyry and sandy soils that contribute to the wine’s mineral, taut character. The base wine is fermented in stainless steel, then aged on fine lees in used barrels until the following spring. It undergoes secondary fermentation by the traditional method and matures on its lees for 64 months. Harvesting details are not provided.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled, around 6–8°C, with refined starters, fish dishes or aged cheeses. Its developed, creamy character also makes it a fitting choice for a celebratory meal. Decanting is not generally necessary for this sparkling wine.

Producer
Le Général Dallemagne was born from a shared vision between Federico Simoni and oenologist Maurizio Iachemet, and was long kept in the historic cellar of Palazzo Monfort. Cantine Monfort has been in operation since 1945, and this Trento DOC Riserva represents the estate’s ambition to express the region through traditional-method sparkling wine. The producer describes the wine as having received multiple awards; specific awards are not listed.
