WINE MAKING PROCESS
The P.Lex Prosecco Rosé Brut 2022 is produced using the Charmat/Martinotti method, which involves a secondary fermentation in pressurized tanks for a minimum of 60 days. This technique is characteristic of Prosecco production and helps to preserve the wine's fresh aromas and create its effervescence. The rosé color is achieved through the maceration of Pinot Noir grapes, allowing for color extraction. The Glera grape typically forms the majority of the blend, with Pinot Noir contributing to the color and structure. The wine is designated as a 'Millesimato' or vintage wine, signifying that it is made from grapes of a single harvest year.
