PRODUCTION AREA
Grapes coming in particular from the vocated areas of Central and North Italy.
SOILS
Well exposed, calcareous clayey soils, which give to the grapes a natural acidity ideal for the production of sparkling wine.
HARVEST
Depending on the vintage harvest takes place between the end of August and beginning of September in order to ensure the right grape maturity and a good acid content
Vinification
Soft pressing of the grapes and fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature in order to maintain the natural aromas of the grapes and obtain a basic wine rich in acids and perfumes.
The secondary fermentation (foam fermentation) takes place with the inoculation of selected yeasts in stainless steel tanks at controlled pressure and temperature (pressure-tank) following the Charmant method.

BOUQUET
Intense in rich at the nose, reveals the typical aroma of the Moscato and Malvasia grapes, characterised by fresh fruity notes of melon, pineapple and ripe peach and floral hints of gelsomino and litchi.
TASTE
In the mouth sweetness tend to predominate, although compensated by a good acidity. Unmistakable notes of ripe sweet fruits and a pleasant and lasting sweet aftertaste of honey.
