Satèn
Franciacorta DOCG
Only the best Chardonnay grapes are used in this Satèn to achieve its silky and smooth character while leaving room for citrus notes and lingering minerality. It is a highly original wine in its category.
Satèn is an “organic wine”, the result of the choice towards processing methods, in the countryside and in the cellar, aimed at guaranteeing the maximum representation of the territory. In the vineyard only substances of natural origin are used. Biodiversity is also encouraged to allow for a balance between all forms of life, plant and animal.
