Silky as only a Satèn can be, this Franciacorta from Cantina Freccianera comes from pure Chardonnay grapes from the vineyards of Corte Franca, Torbiato di Adro and Provaglio d'Iseo: the vineyards face south/southeast at an altitude of 250 m above sea level and on soils of sandy limestone origin. After the manual harvesting of the bunches, the grapes are softly pressed. An initial fermentation takes place in steel and then part of the mass concludes the fermentation in 500-litre French oak tonneaux. After a long stay on the lees, with reassemblies in the tank and batonnage in tonneau we arrive at the assembly and draft phase in the spring following the harvest.
Features of this Franciacorta Freccianera
It has a bright straw yellow color with golden highlights. The olfactory notes are citrus and vanilla, particularly fresh. On the palate it is fresh, harmonious and with a fine and elegant perlage.
