WINE MAKING PROCESS
Perlino Prosecco is produced using the Charmat (or Martinotti-Charmat) method, where the secondary fermentation, responsible for the wine's sparkle, takes place in large, pressurized stainless steel tanks. This process is carefully controlled for temperature to preserve the fresh fruit aromas of the Glera grape. After fermentation, the wine may age on its lees for a specified period, contributing to its texture. For organic versions, specific certifications and aging requirements are met.
