A pure expression of Chardonnay, the 2014 Franciacorta Millesimato Brut Satèn is aged on the lees for 36 months. The results include a lean to medium-bodied texture with nuanced layers of stone fruit, lemon mousse and vanilla custard. The effervescence feels soft and rich, adding to the foamy texture imparted to the palate. Some 65,000 bottles were made.
