This sparkling wine is produced according to the Charmat process by second natural fermentation in cuve elose. The basis wines are carefully selected and treated before fermentation. Then they receive an addition of sugar and yeasts creating the formation of bubbles. After fermentation, the wines are filtered before bottling.
