Production method
It is produced according to the so-called methode champenoise or classic method, a method in which the wine undergoes two different fermentations: the first, the alcoholic one (which it shares with the rest of the wines) takes place in vats for fermentation; the second instead takes place directly in the bottle and ensures that during this second procedure, thanks to particular yeasts, the wine also develops carbon dioxide (which will then give life to the famous bubbles when uncorked).
Alcohol content

Amber yellow color with elegant perlage. On the nose notes of ripe fruit, citrus and flowers, with great minerality and hints of spice. Superb, rigorous and elegant on the palate.
Possible combinations
Excellent for a classy aperitif, or with raw fish and/or delicate cheeses.
