Description
Our Satèn is the freshest Franciacorta we produce because it is made entirely from Chardonnay grapes from the youngest vineyards. These give our Blanc des Blancs an intense floral note and a clear varietal characteristic, which goes well with the creaminess and softness typical of Satèn for a full and velvety sip. Annual production about 20,000 bottles, ageing on the lees for at least 24 months.
