Certainly the Saten di Cavalleri is the one that best reflects the Mediterranean aspect of the cellar, as the grapes are exposed in the sunniest points and harvested at optimal maturity. The vinification is oriented towards the emphasis of the amplitudes, therefore extensive use of spontaneous fermentations, both in steel and in large barrels, which is accompanied by a portion of the cuvée that has carried out malolactic fermentation. The sapidity that naturally characterizes the wines of the Franciacorta hills balances the great aromatic richness of this wine, giving it a surprising ease of drinking.
Classic method produced with only chardonnay grapes from the 2018 harvest. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts and aging in
steel (85%) and large oak barrel (15%). Aging for 3 years on the lees.
Cavalleri
The Cavalleri family has lived in harmony with the land since 1450. Over five centuries, a deep empathy with the vineyard has developed: each generation is confronted day after day with the unpredictability of climate and natural events. Today with Francesco and Diletta at the head of the company, yesterday their mothers Maria and Giulia, and before them their grandfather Giovanni. Today as yesterday with only one objective: to produce wines that faithfully express the essence of the Erbusco hills. Each wine is the child of the previous one, with its own peculiarities that make it unique. 40 hectares of vineyards in the Erbusco hills from which around 200 thousand are produced in the best vintages. Many of Steiner's revolutionary and seductive theories have won them over, but the practical applications of biodynamics even more so. The significance of soil vitality conceived as a living organism. The role of humus and, if necessary, the ability to produce it, so that the resulting balanced system preserves and promotes all the virtuous and vital factors of the soil and environment. Cavalleri has always promoted the benefits of long ageing on the lees. The bottles are turned by hand one by one in the cellar, leaving an indelible artisanal imprint on all the wines.
