Production Area We are in the heart of the so-called Lower Friulian Plain which extends in an area between the Livenza river (to the west) and the Isonzo river (to the east) and between the resurgences and the sea. Following impressive reclamation works dating back to the early 20th century, the area is now richly cultivated.

Production Process After mechanical harvesting, grapes are cooled to preserve their distinctive aromas. This is followed by soft pressing and the addition of selected yeasts for the first fermentation at a controlled temperature of 10-12°C. Second fermentation takes place in pressure tanks for at least 90 days to allow the yeasts to properly work and create a subtle perlage. We proceed with cold stabilization and filtration. The sparkling wine is then bottled and packed.

Organoleptic Characteristics Bright straw yellow with greenish reflections. The light residual sugar enhances the aromas of bloomed flowers and ripe fruit such as apple and pear. Fresh and sapid drinkability.
