It's easy to say "bubbles".
A Franciacorta is infinitely more: each of our wines is obtained through the long and careful process prescribed by the production specifications for wines with a controlled and guaranteed denomination of origin "Franciacorta" (DOCG) , with refermentation in the bottle, disgorgement, and the many other steps that from the vineyard bring a Franciacorta to your glasses – we say it with pride – made to perfection.

The exclusively Chardonnay grapes that make up this wine come from our oldest vineyards located near Lake Iseo, fully enjoying the advantages of its particular microclimate. Its effervescence is gentle, with an underlined perlage, while the straw color varies in shade based on the vintage.

As for the aroma, it offers a complex bouquet that evokes sensations of fresh fruit, notes of acacia and lime. The fermentations take place partly in lightly toasted barriques, helping to give the wine a touch of elegance, finesse and a subtle hint of vanilla. On the palate, it stands out for a pleasant sensation of softness.

Wine description
The Franciacorta Satèn was born in the vineyards of the Tenuta La Montina located between Lake Iseo and the morainic amphitheater of Franciacorta, in the province of Brescia. It is produced entirely with Chardonnay grapes, harvested and carefully selected by hand. After fermentation in barriques that gives the wine elegance and finesse, the fermentation takes place by refermentation in bottle according to the Classic Method, with aging on its lees. The vinification sees the plant of 100% Chardonnay grapes as well. The wine is then aged in the bottle for at least 30 months during which the sparkling wine remains on the lees, aging.
