Franciacorta Brut Satèn DOCG 2016 Ferghettina

This Franciacorta Satèn di Ferghettina is produced only from Chardonnay grapes harvested from 20 high vocation vineyards located in 6 municipalities of the Franciacorta denomination.

The harvest begins in the second decade of August and continues until the first week of September. From the soft pressing of the grapes the must is obtained of which only the so-called flower, that is deriving from the first pressing, will undergo fermentation. The second fermentation is carried out in the bottle and the aging is carried out for 24 months in contact with the yeasts, plus another 2 months after disgorgement.

In the glass it is a beautiful bright yellow, decorated with a fine and persistent perlage. It expresses all its elegance in a creamy and delicate sense of smell, with notes of almond and sweet pastry. The tasting is composed and pleasant, supported by a subtle effervescence.

Fabulous in the company of crudité fish, sushi and sashimi, it goes well with shellfish and light appetizers based on cold cuts.
