Label / history
The wine was introduced in 1978 under the name Crémant and was renamed Franciacorta Vintage Satèn in 1990. Beginning with the 2008 vintage, Satèn, Dosage Zéro and Brut were reinterpreted as the Vintage Collection, conceived as a narrative of the territory and of the human role in bringing out the vines’ natural potential.
