PRODUCTION AND YIELD OF GRAPES/MUST
100 quintals/hectare and 50 hl/ha.
VINIFICATION
a part of the rosé free-run must (about 90-95%) is obtained through the soft pressing of the grapes, once and the remaining part (10-5%) is subjected to a short cold soak for a few hours (8 hours at 8°C). Fermentation with the addition of selected yeasts takes place in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 17-19°C.
AGEING
the “tirage” or the second fermentation takes place in the bottle followed by a minimum of 24 months of rest on the yeasts. After disgorgement, the sparkling wine rests for 3 months in the bottle before being put up for sale, to favor its maximum aromatic or gustatory expression.
