Vinification
First fermentation happens in stainless steel. The subsequent re-fermentation in tanks according to the long Charmat method and the moderate dosage (5.5 g/L residual sugars) preserve the varietal aroma of the grapes.
Refinement
The base wine ages on the lees for three months, then it referments in an autoclave and stays there for a month, in the bottle for about six months.
Tasting
Modern sparkling wine of the Tyrrhenian Coast, fresh and fruity cut. Nose notes of acacia honey, citrus and herbs. The taste has a balance based on freshness and minerality that facilitate drinking. Vermentino contributes to the bouquet and body while Bellone and Bombino give dynamism and verticality.
