Produced using the \u003cstrong\u003eMetodo Classico\u003c\/strong\u003e – the same method used for Champagne – it stands out for its lower pressure compared to other Franciacorta wines, which gives it a softer and more velvety mousse, from which the term \"Satèn\" derives.\nFerghettina, a renowned winery in Adro, interprets this style with an unmistakable flair, focusing on the purity of the fruit and a lively freshness capable of enhancing every sip.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVintage details\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe 2021 vintage in Franciacorta was characterized by a mild winter and a regular spring, which favored a harmonious development of the vines.
