The red sweet sparkling wine born in 2000. The roses scent and the lively foam call to the mind red fruits, desserts and cocktails as from a romantic landscape picture, very appreciated from women for its red ruby, brilliant and charming colour. Thanks to its fresh, bubbling and velvety tasting warm the hearts and the friendship meetings.

Red vinification: de-stemming of grapes, followed by cold maceration and fermentation on the skins at controlled temperature of 16° C for several days, crushing. The second fermentation happens at a controlled temperature of approx 16° C for 20 days. The formation of a light mousse in pressure tanks with the addition of selected yeasts to reach an excess pressure of 4 Atm is followed by stabilization and refrigeration at -4° C. Before bottling the wine undergoes microfiltration, and it is then left to refine in the bottle for several weeks. |
