From the vinification of this sensational and refined 100% pure Brachetto d'Acqui vine comes this wine able to boast the DOCG certification. For its vinification, the grapes, just harvested, arrives in the cellar intact and is quickly crushed and gently destemmed to extract from the skin and from the outer area of the berry only the most noble and aromatic fractions. The must is immediately refrigerated pending the subsequent partial fermentation in autoclave, so that the carbon dioxide, which gives the lively foam, remains partially dissolved in the wine. Fermentation is then stopped by refrigeration so that the residual sugars remain abundant.
