The Franciacorta Satèn Spumante by Barone Pizzini is made from grapes grown in the Roccolo, Cologna, Carabiolo, and Ronchi vineyards, located in the heart of the Franciacorta DOCG. It is produced exclusively with Chardonnay grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand. The grapes undergo soft pressing and ferment in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Subsequently, the wine ages partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in barriques for 6 months, and for an additional 36 months in the bottle, before being released to the market.

Tasting notes:

This Satèn is characterized by a pale golden yellow color. The nose opens with a floral bouquet, enriched by pleasant hints of white berry fruits. On the palate, it is soft, silky, and pleasantly enveloping.

Pairings:

Perfect as an aperitif, it is ideal with white meats and fresh cheeses.
