Antica Fratta | Lombardy
Antica Cantina Fratta | Via Fontana 11 | IT 25040 Monticelli Brusati

Franciacorta Satèn, made from the best Chardonnay grapes of the vintage, seduces with a complex bouquet of citrus fruit flavours and fresh yeast pastries. Enveloping and creamy on the palate, structured and harmonious, very persistent and with a nutty finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Brilliant pale straw yellow with grey reflections and fine perlage. Elegant aroma of sage, mint, citrus zest and a slightly spicy note on the nose. Firm on the palate with a lovely freshness, savoury and a lingering final." Falstaff

"More savory than sweet, the 2019 Brut Satèn Franciacorta Essence opens with a blend of incense and Asian pear aromas. Seductively round yet focused, this flows across the palate with a soothing bead of silken bubbles, giving way to mineral-drench pit fruits and spices. It finishes with admirable length and potent, yet still remarkably fresh, leaving a pretty inner sweetness and mint suggestions to fade. The balance here is lovely." Vinous

"Made from 100% Chardonnay, proof of balance and savoury tension in a memorable vintage. On the nose, notes of white peach, then lemongrass and hawthorn. Salty on the palate, with a fruity, oily finish and convincing persistence." Luca Gardini
