WINE MAKING PROCESS
The production of this Ribolla Gialla Spumante Brut begins with a soft pressing of the grapes. The resulting must undergoes static cold decantation before fermentation in steel tanks at controlled temperatures of 16-17°C. Secondary fermentation, which creates the wine's sparkle, is carried out using the Charmat method in steel tanks at temperatures between 12-15°C. After this process, the wine is aged in the bottle for 3 months before release.
