About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The base wines come from Monte di Appiano and Pochi di Salorno, where the soils are composed of porphyry and limestone.
Grapes
A multi-vintage blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from the 2018, 2017 and 2016 harvests.
Vinification
The base wines ferment in wooden casks. Chardonnay ferments and subsequently matures in wood, while part of the cuvée is aged in barriques and tonneaux.
Ageing
The wine remains on its lees for at least 72 months. It can be kept for 2–5 years after disgorgement.
Technical data

Tasting profile
A full-bodied, opulent and layered sparkling wine with considerable depth and character. Wood-aged Chardonnay contributes rich, almost baroque fullness, density and depth on the palate, while Pinot Noir provides structure and juiciness.
