WINE MAKING PROCESS
Gancia Prosecco Brut is produced using the Charmat method, where the secondary fermentation takes place in pressurized stainless steel tanks. This process is key to developing the wine's effervescence and preserving its fresh, fruity character. Fermentation is conducted at controlled temperatures to optimize aroma retention. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes a brief aging period, typically a few months, in stainless steel to maintain its vibrancy and crispness before bottling.
