    Franciacorta Satèn DOCG
  • There is no better label than a Satén to savor the freshness and clarity of a true Franciacorta. Produced from Chardonnay grapes only, the one offered here by Santus comes from a particular harvest slightly delayed respect to the usual. This choice against the trend is made to try (and succeed) in giving the wine more body and a more complex structure. This is also helped by the processing in the cellar, with maceration on the skins, alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in barriques, followed by aging of the base wines, also in barriques, for at least 6 months. The result is a surprisingly subtle bubble and a wine characterized by an intense yellow color. On the nose, it is vast and elegant. Rich of fruit and fresh citrus hints as well as bread crust and dairy notes. On the palate has a pleasing citrus flavor with ripe white fruit and citrus peel. A great wine for those seeking complexity and elegance.

    Maria Luisa Santus and Gianfranco Pagano, both agronomists, in 1995 decided to devote themselves entirely to viticulture in Franciacorta. And they do so in the conviction that they can obtain excellent results, from a suitable territory, and thanks to their advanced scientific knowledge. They started with a bang. Within three years, they planted about 60,000 vines on 10 hectares of land and since then they have personally taken care of every aspect of cultivation. At the base of their philosophy, there is the conviction that the task of small winemakers is to be a vanguard, defending diversity and all the nuances that nature offers, refusing any standardization. In this context, it is almost natural that they are convinced to follow organic viticulture, an essential tool for environmental protection and the production of wines with strong character. The peculiarity of Santus is that it does not work Cuvée but always bottles the product of individual vintages.
