Monogram Franciacorta Saten DOCG NV
About
Saten has bright straw yellow hue with creamy mousse, and a fine, persistent bead. Rich, complex nose of spring flowers and ripe fruit. The elegant palate is soft and delicate, due to the lower dissolved carbon dioxide content.
Terroir
Morainic hills composed of vine-clad terraces and gravelly, well-drained soils that are rich in micro- and meso-mineral content, amassed over three major geological periods. The moderating maritime influence from both the lake and river, along with mountains that both cool and protect the territory completes the ideal conditions for the production of high-quality wines.
Vinification
Produced with Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco grapes, harvested by hand towards the end of August. After a soft pressing, the free-run must undergoes a primary cold fermentation process in stainless steel tanks; the secondary fermentation takes place in the bottle, after the addition of yeast and the periodical riddling. After disgorgement, the wine is aged for 24 months in the bottle prior to release.
