Montenisa - Franciacorta Saten 2002 Ml. 750
Winery Montenisa
Characteristic
The wines made in this area, which are some of the best in Italy, obtained DOC status in 1967 and subsequently DOCG with more careful zoning: the DOC Terre di Franciacorta went to the white and red wines while the DOCG Franciacorta was reserved far those which undergo a second fermentation in the bottles.
In 1995 the first and only Italian DOCG Brut was created, with obligatory natural second fermentation in the bottles.
The wine is straw-yellow in colour with golden hues, and creamy mousse with a delicate, lasting perlage . The original, intense nose has floral notes and the hints of white peaches add depth and balance. The wine's liveliness and freshness are perfectly balanced on the full complex palate.
