DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA

This wine is obtained from the vinification of glera grapes, selected and harvested in the vineyards located in the municipality of Buttrio, a land suited for the production of this variety. Straw yellow colour. Fine and persistent perlage. Elegant bouquet, floral, yeast and crusty bread. Delicate, aromatic, round flavour. Contains sulfites.

Soil composition: the soil is of Eocene origin and is rich in clay which give the wine its typical characteristics of fragrance and aroma. The presence of micro-elements in the soil such as boron, magnesium, etc., together with the typical microclimate of the area, favour the grapes with an excellent natural level of alcohol.

Vinification: early harvest so as to achieve the spumante base with a good acidity and level of alcohol that is not too high (around 11% volume), soft pressing and refrigeration are followed by the settling and racking of the cleaned must, then fermentation at a controlled temperature (around 17°C) and the addition of selected yeasts which favour the development of the wine’s characteristic fragrances and aromas.
