Description
Franciacorta Il Mosnel Saten is a wine produced with Chardonnay grapes by the Il Mosnel winery in Franciacorta. The vineyards are located in the designated areas in the municipality of Passirano, at the foot of the Monterotondo and Fantecolo hills with an East - South/East exposure in the heart of the Franciacorta DOCG. The Chardonnay grapes are hand-harvested around mid-August and brought to the winery for pressing. The musts ferment in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for about 10-12 days at low temperature, and 40% in French oak barrels. The aging of the Franciacorta base wines continues until the spring following the harvest when they are blended to create Franciacorta Il Mosnel Saten. The wine is bottled with the addition of yeasts and sugars that will allow the development of bubbles inside the bottle following the second fermentation. After a period of 36 months of aging in the bottle, the Franciacorta Il Mosnel Saten wine is disgorged, dosed, and released to the market. Pairings: Franciacorta Il Mosnel Saten is perfect to accompany appetizers and fish-based dishes, it is ideal paired with first courses, shellfish, and seafood.
