Aging

SPARKLING PROCESS IN AUTOCLAVE WITH MARTINOTTI METHOD FOR AT LEAST 40 DAYS

The soil is lime-clay, moderately deep and alkaline, typical of the Veneto plain. It rests on an ancient layer, a paleosol known as “caranto”. The climate is generally temperate and humid due to its proximity to the sea. Still, it is characterised by a wide temperature range due to the alternate cold wind (Bora) and warm-humid one (Scirocco).

Vinification takes place with a gentle crushing and pressing of the grapes and rapid separation of the must from the skins. The must is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 15-16°C to preserve the original aromas. Once alcoholic fermentation has taken place, the wine is refermented in an autoclave.
