Vintage Details

The grapes for Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Brut DOCG 'Col Del Sas' - Spagnol Col Del Sas are harvested manually, generally between the end of September and the beginning of October, to ensure the right balance between acidity and sugars.

Vinification and aging

After soft pressing, the free-run must ferments at a controlled temperature. The second fermentation, or prise de mousse, takes place according to the Charmat method in an autoclave for about 60 days.

The wine is then stabilized and bottled after a short aging on the lees, which gives it greater depth and gustatory harmony.
