Franciacorta D.O.C.G. V.S.Q.P.R.D.
Brut Satèn
Grapes
  Chardonnay 100%.
Harvest
 
From 15 August to 25 August with meticulous selection of the bunches before pressing.
Average yield per hectare
  52 Hl.
Pressing
 
The grapes are pressed gently to extract only the best must.
Wine-making
 
A part of the Chardonnay ferments in temperature controlled steel tanks for around 8 months; another part ferments in oak casks. After refinement, the two wines are wisely blended. On “tirage” a small amount of syrup added for sparkle reduces pressure development.
Refinement in the bottle
 
Refinement in the bottle lasts for 24 months before dègorgement.
Adjustment mixture
  It is topped up with the same wine.
Combination
 
We recommend drinking this wine throughout meals; excellent also as an aperitif.
Service temperature
  Serve at a temperature of 8/10°C.
Consumption prospects
 
The wine is ready to drink. If suitably stored it keeps for several years without losing its characteristics.
