WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Prosecco Brut Valdobbiadene 2022 is produced from 100% Glera grapes harvested in the latter half of September. Fermentation occurs at controlled temperatures with selected yeasts. The defining winemaking technique is the secondary fermentation in autoclave, utilizing the Charmat-Martinotti method for 25 to 30 days, which is instrumental in creating the wine's effervescence. Post-fermentation, the wine is refined in the bottle for approximately three months. The winery's approach emphasizes traditional viticulture, such as the 'modified cappuccina' vine training, and a progressive shift towards organic farming practices.
