Second Fermentation:
Left on the lees for several months, where a percentage which varies based on the year is inoculated with selected bacteria to initiate the malolactic fermentation. Refermentation in autoclave (Charmat long method) for over a year, then bottling and aging in the bottle for a further 12 months before being released to market. Interesting also after several years of aging.

Sensory characteristics:
An assertive spumante, good balance between its acid and alcohol components with a fruity, mature bouquet, with tones of toasted almonds and apricot. The aromas of yeast and bread are very evident. Superb in the mouth, complex and full on the palate.
