Grapes for this Prosecco Rosé are grown on hillsides, in the regions of Veneto and Friuli.

After the primary fermentation, a portion of Pinot Noir is added in order to obtain the characteristic rosé colour. Stabilization and secondary fermentation (“prise de mousse”) then follow according to the Charmat method.

The grapes are manually harvested into baskets and softly pressed to obtain the must, which is then refrigerated and filtered. Fermentation takes places in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at between 18°C and 22°C and there is no contact between the must and the skins during this time.
