Franciacorta Saten 'Vintage Collection' Ca' del Bosco 2021
Weich und samtig, der Franciacorta Saten Millesimato von Ca' del Bosco drückt die gesamte Eleganz der Franciacorta in den besten Jahrgängen aus. Nach einer Reifung von 48 Monaten auf der Hefe verströmt er Aromen von Obst, Zitrusfrüchten und Honig und hat einen cremigen und sehr eleganten Geschmack.
The Saten “Vintage Collection” Ca’ del Bosco is the most delicate bottle of the Franciacorta production from this famous winery. A sparkling wine that Ca’ del Bosco creates for those who seek quality, refinement, design, and prestige. Maurizio Zanella, the owner of the winery, was the first visionary to glimpse the potential of these lands and has become one of the most important reference points of the denomination. Year after year, continuous innovation, constant research, thinking outside conventional schemes, the rigor of production, and ongoing study have brought Ca’ del Bosco and its wines to the highest levels.
The Franciacorta Saten Ca’ del Bosco is a blend of Chardonnay with a smaller percentage of Pinot Bianco. The grapes are hand-picked usually in the second half of August in vineyards scattered among the municipalities of Erbusco, Adro, Cazzago San Martino, Corte Franca, and Passirano, in the province of Brescia. They then undergo a unique process: in a specially created machine, one witnesses washing and massage of the grapes that allows for complete cleaning without the loss of aromas. The processing method of the Saten is as simple to describe as it is decisive for the fate of the wine: during the tirage, the phase in which yeasts and sugars are added to the wine to start the refermentation, the amount of sugar added is less than that of a traditional sparkling wine.
The notes that reach the nose from the Saten “Vintage Collection” are mainly fruity, from peach to pineapple, with the sharpness of citrus intertwining with the sweetness of honey. The characteristic of this Saten is that it is less aggressive in the mouth, thanks to a soft and velvety bubble and a truly exquisite delicacy. Ca' del Bosco is one of the leading representatives of great Franciacorta, a name that has managed to conquer a top role thanks to the consistency of quality work first in the vineyard and then in the winery. The Saten from Ca' del Bosco is synonymous with sensuality and elegance, a unique Franciacorta that will remain in your heart. A magnificent Saten, a stunning Franciacorta!
