ORIGIN: Pramaggiore, our own vineyards
ELEVATION:25-40 m.a.s.l.
SOIL TYPE: Medium texture, clayey
SECOND FERMENTATION: Charmat Method
VINIFICATION: White vinification of grapes through soft pressing
followed by cold decantation. The resulting must is transferred to steel
vats where fermentation is completed over 10 days at a controlled
temperature of 18-20 °C on carefully selected yeasts. The “basic” wine
is placed in prise de mousse pressure tanks where it ferments for 18-20
days on active yeasts at a controlled temperature of 14-16 °C. When
the required over pressure is reached (approx. 6 bar) the mass is
cooled to -4 °C to stop fermentation and aid stabilisation. It is then
held at a controlled temperature for at least one month so that it can
mature naturally on the yeasts. At the end of this period the wine
undergoes filtering and isobaric bottling.
TASTING NOTES: Straw colour with fine, lingering perlage. On the
nose the scent is clean, pleasantly fruity, reminiscent of rennet apple
and peach blossom. The flavour is soft and well-balanced, with a
pleasant freshness that, combined with the finesse of perlage, extends
the pleasant aromatic sensations.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: A versatile wine, easy to drink and
particularly good as an aperitif, with cheese and fish appetizers. Ideal
throughout the meal, with delicate dishes.
