WINE MAKING PROCESS
Monte Rossa Cabochon Fuoriserie N°24 is produced using the traditional method, a complex process involving secondary fermentation in the bottle. Key to its character is fermentation in barriques, which contributes to its structure and aromatic complexity. The wine then undergoes a minimum of 36 months of aging on its lees before disgorgement. The blend incorporates 20% reserve wines, adding depth and consistency. The winery employs integrated viticulture practices in its vineyards.
