The Giorgi winery cultivates its vineyards on \u003cstrong\u003ecalcareous and clayey soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, which impart a defined structure and a solid flavour profile to the wine. This specific soil composition supports freshness and ensures a long persistence on the palate.

The following spring, the secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle according to the rules of the \u003cstrong\u003eTraditional Method\u003c\/strong\u003e. Ageing involves a period of \u003cstrong\u003eat least 36 months on the lees\u003c\/strong\u003e, a crucial stage for defining the aromatic profile and achieving a fine mousse. After disgorgement, the sparkling wine rests for a further six months before being released to the market.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result of the dedication of the Giorgi family, active in Oltrepò Pavese since 1870, this \u003cstrong\u003eClassic Method Sparkling Wine\u003c\/strong\u003e encapsulates the essence of the Lombardy region.
