After soft pressing, the cloudy must is left to settle at a cool temperature (about 12 ° C) in steel tanks and then the clear part is separated from the deposit and the fermentation is started. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a constant temperature of 16 ° C for 15-20 days. At the end of the vinification the basic wine is obtained. The sparkling process is carried out using the Martinotti / Charmat method: the base wine, after resting over winter on the yeasts is put into autoclaves where with refermentation the wine reaches a pressure of 5 atmospheres. The sparkling process takes at least 30 days, then - after a filtration to eliminate the yeasts - it is bottled.
