Vinification
The grapes are harvested by hand and immediately taken to the cellar. After destemming and soft pressing, the must is cooled and left to decant naturally. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature (16-18°C) until it reaches the desired alcohol content and residual sugar. The wine is then filtered and bottled under pressure to maintain its natural effervescence.
Serving temperature
6-8°C
Storage
Store in a cool, dark place, away from light and heat sources. It is best enjoyed young to appreciate its freshness and aromaticity.
