Winemaking
The traditional method for sparkling wine productions begins with the first pressing of our grapes. The 'cuvée' juice is then fermented in stainless steel to preserve the fruit aromatics. A second fermentation takes place inside the bottle building carbon dioxide and additional flavour in the wine. After months of maturation on the 'lees', the yeast is disgorged and finally the wine is topped up with the dosage.
