WINE MAKING PROCESS
Freixenet Asti is produced using the Charmat method, where fermentation takes place in pressurized tanks. This technique is employed to preserve the natural aromas and lively flavors of the Moscato Bianco grapes. After the initial alcoholic fermentation with selected yeasts, the process is halted by cooling. Following aging operations, the wine is bottled under sterile conditions to maintain the grape's characteristics.
