About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The hillside vineyard stands at approximately 350 m a.s.l. with a western exposure and Guyot training. The plant material is a massal selection taken from old Trebbiano Spoletino vines traditionally grown between maple trees.
Grapes
100% organically grown Trebbiano Spoletino.
Vinification
The grapes are normally harvested by hand in the first week of September, with whole bunches placed in small trays. Whole-bunch soft pressing is followed by cold static clarification and fermentation in large oak casks. Malolactic fermentation does not take place.
Ageing
This is a classic-method, pas-dosage sparkling wine. It remains on the lees through the prise de mousse, then spends 24 months in bottle with the lees. The introductory specification describes total lees contact as exceeding 30 months.
