Gentle pressing followed by fermentation in a pressure tank until the alcohol level is around 4%. The half-fermented juice is then cooled down to a temperature of -3°C and put through a micro-filter to prevent the residual sugars and the yeasts from triggering a second fermentation in the bottle. The wine is bottled at pressure to retain the carbon dioxide from the original fermentation.

Straw-yellow, intense nose of orange blossom, peach and thyme. Fruity opening on the palate, with a fine mousse, a spritzy acidity, varietal notes and a well-balanced finish.

Sourced from the vineyards of Castiglione Tinella, where the soils, interspersed with limestone and volcanic tuff, are characteristic of the Asti region as a whole.
