To produce this Franciacorta Satèn, the Chardonnay grapes from the younger vineyards are used exclusively, which guarantee freshness but at the same time softness and creaminess: the vineyards are located in the Iseo testaglio at 150-200 m above sea level: the soils are of calcareous clay matrix. After manual harvesting, the grapes are placed in a refrigerated cell for 24-36 hours for greater aroma extraction. This is followed by soft pressing of the whole bunches: 80% ferment in steel, the remainder in tonneaux, where malolactic fermentation also takes place. Bottle aged on lievti for 24 months.
