Vinification
Only free-run must from the soft pressing of hand-picked, fully ripe grapes, pressed on arrival at the winery. The must ferments without skins for some days in temperature-controlled stainless steel, then the sparkling process follows the Metodo Classico; it is called Brut because of its low residual sugar. Refermentation in bottle and 12-18 months on the lees, disgorgement a la glace, then at least 4 months of rest in lying bottles before sale.
