The grapes used for the "Strada di Guia 109" come from the best hillside plots, where the diurnal temperature variation favors the development of aromas. Recent vintages have been characterized by regular weather patterns, which allowed for healthy, perfectly ripe bunches, ensuring an ideal balance between acidity, sugars, and aromas.Winemaking and aging
Winemaking involves careful temperature control to preserve the natural fragrance of the Glera grape. After the first fermentation, the base wine undergoes a secondary fermentation in a tank using the Charmat method. The aging period on the lees lasts several weeks, just enough to round out the taste and deliver a fine, persistent effervescence, without overpowering the wine's fresh and fruity character.Tasting notes
