WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Ferrari F1 Suzuka is produced using the traditional method (Metodo Classico), a process involving a second fermentation in the bottle to create its effervescence. The base wine is made from 100% Chardonnay. After bottling, the wine undergoes a period of aging on its lees, which contributes to its complexity and texture. This extended contact with the yeast sediment is a key element in developing the characteristic aromas and flavors of high-quality traditional method sparkling wines. The grapes are cultivated in the Trentino region, known for its suitable climate for Chardonnay.
