Franciacorta DOCG Satèn Millesimato Soulsatèn 2011 Contadi Castaldi
Description
Contadi Castaldi's Franciacorta Soul Satèn Millesimato was born in the vineyards located in the heart of the Franciacorta DOCG.
It is produced with 100% Chardonnay grapes, harvested and selected manually between the end of August and the beginning of September. Fermentation takes place for about 20 days in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature. Subsequently the wine ages for the first 7 months in steel and in barriques, on the lees for another 60 months and finally another 3-4 months in glass before disgorgement.
This Franciacorta is complex, pleasantly original and intriguing. It is characterized by an intense and sparkling straw yellow color, and a fine and persistent perlage. The nose opens with a refined floral bouquet, enriched with notes of broom, bread crust and hazelnut on the finish. On the palate it is structured, fresh and balanced.
Perfect to accompany appetizers and appetizers but light, it goes well with second courses based on fresh fish and vegetables.
