Vinification
Harvested grapes are de-stemmed and crushed gently. The must obtained is transferred to steel vats where fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures. Then the so-called ‘charmat method’ of making sparkling wine begins: a selection of yeasts is used to trigger a secondary fermentation which lasts at least 60 days. Fermentation is stopped by raising the temperature when the desired residual sugar is obtained in the tank. The style is Brut with 8 g/L residual sugar.
