The Satèn category of Franciacorta represents Blanc de Blancs at lower pressures, below 5 atmospheres. Pizzini crafts a delicate rendition, with a gentle seductive fizz. Almond dust, brioche, and lemon confit.

Franciacorta DOCG Satèn, bottle tasted in May 2014. I like the wines from this producer, I think they are very well made. Beautiful pale yellow color, very luminescent. Excellent nose, rich of aromas. Very nice in the mouth too, creamy and persistent. It could have been served a little colder.... 88/100

Franciacorta DOC Vintage 2009. Elegant bubbles, excellent color, good acidity in the mouth, pleasant even if the persistence could have been a bit better.

Good but not exceptional Franciacorta. Straightforward and no off flavors

I really shutter to think how Prosecco still exists when there are things like this being created. Smh. Smh. Smh.

Crops, fresh pear on the nose. Light citrus, a bit of bite. Very crisp with notes of lingering elderberry.
