VARIETIES
Glera.
PRODUCTION DISTRICT
Grapes from the Prosecco DOC production district.
HARVEST
The harvest takes place in September, in order to maintain the freshness of the fruit.
WINEMAKING METHOD
The grapes are softly pressed to extract the free run juice, which is fermented at controlled temperature (16-18 °C) to obtain the base wine.
This undergoes then a second alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 15°-16°: the yeasts fermenting the sugars produce alcohol and some carbon dioxide, which remains trapped in the wine. When the desired level of residual sugar is reached, the fermentation is stopped cooling down the wine. The final stages are the filtration and the bottling.
SENSORY PROFILE
Pale straw yellow colour with fine and persistent perlage; pleasant and aromatic with delicate notes of apple, honeydew and pear.
RECOMMENDED CELLARING
1 year.
FOOD PAIRING
Appetizers, delicate starters, fish, cold cuts of white meat, fine patisserie. Also an exquisite aperitif.
