Grape varieties 60% Pinot Nero, 40% Chardonnay
Aging Cà del Tava's cuvè is made by blending the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay reserves from different years with 50% Pinot Noir from the year of production. The cuvè of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay undergoes protein stabilisation and filtration; in the 'draught', it is placed in Champagne bottles together with a liqueur de tirage, composed of wine, sugar and selected yeasts. The bottles are corked with bidule and crown cork and stacked in the cellar to re-ferment at a constant temperature of 12°C; the post-fermentation maturation on the yeast skins lasts at least 70 months, before the bottles are remuaged on pupitres. In the degorgement phase, the bottle is uncorked, the residue of the re-fermentation yeast is removed and the liqueur d'expédition is added; finally, the sparkling wine is corked with a mushroom cork and prepared for sale.

Once upon a time, and it's still here. It's 1893 when the Boatti Family in the municipality of Oliva Gessi, in the heart of the Oltrepò Pavese, writes the most beautiful and important page in the history of Italian sparkling wine: at Cà del Tava, one of the great crus of the winery, the seal between Monsupello, Pinot Nero, and Chardonnay is stamped.

Daring what is new, dreaming it, imagining it, and making it real: in the name of the father, Carlo Boatti, and today with his children Pierangelo and Laura. With different sensitivities and attitudes, they are interpreters of future horizons, in the contemporaneity of their sparkling wines.

Wine making The white wine-making process begins with the soft pressing of the whole grapes, which leads to the separation of the must from the marc. In different containers, the flower must (i.e. the first 50 per cent of the pressing liquid, which is more fruity, acidic and fine) is separated from the second-pressing must. The first-pressing must, clarified and decanted after about a day, is fermented in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18 °C.
Aging Cà del Tava's cuvè is made by blending the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay reserves from different years with 50% Pinot Noir from the year of production.
