WINE MAKING PROCESS
Mimi Kiss. is produced using methods typical for sweet, sparkling Moscato wines. The Moscato grapes are likely fermented at controlled temperatures to preserve their delicate aromas. For the sparkling character, a secondary fermentation, often in large pressurized tanks (Charmat method), is employed. This process helps to capture the fresh fruit and floral notes characteristic of the grape and creates the wine's signature effervescence. The fermentation is managed to retain a significant level of residual sugar, resulting in its sweet profile. The wine is typically bottled shortly after production to ensure maximum freshness and vibrancy, as it is intended for immediate consumption and not for aging.
