About this experience
The vineyard is in one of the highest municipalities in the Alta Langa: Cissone, at 650m above sea level.
The height and the mountain climate allow us to achieve an extraordinary result: at the time of harvest (end of August - September) the grapes reach a degree of maturity combined with an exceptional freshness that would be impossible to obtain at lower altitudes.
The result? Complex wine and at the same time soft, creamy, very pleasant!
We are in no hurry: we let our Classic Method refine for at least 40 months on its yeasts at a controlled temperature. Only at the moment we deem optimal do we put it on the market. We thus manage to obtain a rich straw yellow colour, a fine perlage, complex aromas of aromatic herbs and ripe fruit, a long persistence on notes of sweet almond.
With the visit you will understand the secrets of the production of Classic Method bubbles and why the right approach and patience can lead to exceptional results!
