| Grape varieties |
80% Chardonnay, 20% Pinot Bianco |
| Climate |
Exposure: East and South-East. |
| Soil composition |
Plains and morainic with medium fertility, loose, with medium depth skeleton. |
| Harvest |
Hand picked into small boxes, between the second and fourth week of August. |
| Vinification |
Vinification in white in pneumatic press with separation of the first and second pressing. After 12 hours of decanting at 13°C. The inoculation of selected yeasts is carried out for fermentation partly in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks and partly in small oak barrels (30%). Malolactic fermentation and racking precede the blending of the Cuvée, which in March, after adding the "liqueur de tirage", is bottled, corked with the crown cork and laid down in the stack for the second fermentation. |
| Ageing |
The stacked bottles remain 30 months in the company's 17th-century cellars before 'remouage'. Subsequently disgorged and dosed "Brut Nature", they receive the mushroom cap and cork. At least three months of further ageing are finally required before this Franciacorta is put on the market. |
