The region develops inland, where the hills and their specific slopes have a deep impact on the grapes’ acidity and aromatic precision.

These environmental characteristics translate into a glass distinguished by its taste finesse and ensure a pleasant continuity of the perlage.How it is madeThe creation of this wine involves the use of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes crafted according to the strictest processes of classic sparkling winemaking. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle and follows the guidelines of the Classic Method, a fundamental step for the natural formation of the bubbles. The next phase requires patience and precision, with a long thirty months on the lees enriching and stabilizing its sensory profile.
