Franciacorta Brut Satèn DOCG 2014 Castello Bonomi
Data sheet
Description
The Franciacorta Brut Satèn of Castello Bonomi was born in the vineyards of the Lombard company, located in the beautiful hills of the southernmost area of Franciacorta. It represents the softer Brut of Castello Bonomi.
Obtained exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, harvested manually between 15 and 25 August and meticulously selected bunch by bunch, this bubbles is extracted by a soft pressing of the grapes and ferments half in steel and half in oak barrels. The two wines are then assembled and a small percentage of syrup is added to the tirage for the second fermentation and pressure reduction. The refinement in the bottle lasts for 30 months and then continues the stabilization for a further 8 months.
Castello Bonomi's Brut Satèn has a bright straw yellow color and a delicate and well-present perlage. The nose is subtle and delicate, with notes of white flowers and acacia, hints of pineapple and apple and typical sensations of bread crust. In the mouth it is rightly soft, silky and with a nice balance between structure and acidity.
Perfect to accompany the aperitif moment, it also goes very well with first courses and fish in general.
