Winemaking

The grapes are all sourced from the Biancospino vineyard, a south facing slope planted with 35 year old vines. This single vineyard is hand tended and harvested with a final selection of bunches at the winery before a short, cold maceration and fermentation in temperature controlled steel. These fermentation vessels are kept under pressure during the last stages of the fermentation at a cold temperature, which encourages the carbon dioxide, produced naturaly as a by-product, to dissolve into the wine and create the lightly sparkling style.
