VINEYARDS OF ORIGIN

Franciacorta Saten encapsulates the elegance and creaminess expressed by the finest and most delicate vineyards in the winery’s viticultural landscape. We select chardonnays from 20 different vineyards located in 6 communes of Franciacorta for the cuvee of this Franciacorta.

WINEMAKING

The whole cluster grapes are pressed with a pneumatic press at very gentle pressures. During winemaking, the musts are separated into two fractions: first-pressing must, which has the best quality characteristics and is used for the production of Franciacorta, and second-pressing must, which is not used for bottling. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 16 to 18 °C. The base wine rests in tanks until the spring following the harvest.

TASTE CHARACTERISTICS

Bright yellow color. Fine and persistent perlage. Very elegant and creamy aroma with notes of pastry and confectionery.
