Wine with a very fine and persistent perlage, straw yellow in colour, with a nuanced but decisive aroma of ripe fruit, delicate notes of white flowers and dried fruit.
Satèn is an exclusive designation of the Franciacorta denomination; the term “Satèn” is a trademark registered by the Franciacorta Consortium for this wine with a very fine and persistent perlage, almost creamy, with an intense straw yellow color, with greenish colors, a nuanced but decisive aroma of ripe fruit accompanied by delicate notes of white flowers and dried fruit, even toasted (almond and hazelnut). The softness of the taste is given by a careful selection of the base wines and by the lower pressure in the bottle, under 5 atmospheres. It is produced exclusively in the Brut typology.
