Winemaking and Aging

The wine is produced through careful winemaking using the classic method, which involves secondary fermentation in the bottle – the same method used in Champagne – giving fineness and persistence to the perlage. After the first fermentation in steel, the wine rests for about 36 months on its lees, a period that enriches its aromatic profile and palate softness. At the end of the aging process, remuage (gradual rotation of the bottles to move sediments towards the neck) is performed, followed by dégorgement (disgorgement), which completes the production process before release to the market.
