WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Maria Casanovas Pinot Noir Rosé Brut Nature is produced using the traditional method, also known as the Champenoise method. Grapes are macerated with their skins for 12 to 24 hours to extract color and aromas before primary fermentation in stainless steel tanks. A second fermentation takes place in the bottle, followed by a minimum aging period of 18 months. The winery employs certified organic farming practices in its vineyards.
