“Leonia” Brut Millesimato Pomino Spumante Bianco DOC 2017

The harvest takes place by hand in 15kg boxes in the coolest hours of the day. Once they arrive in the cellar, the grapes are subjected to a slow and delicate pressing which allows the extraction of the must from the heart of the berry. Once the cuvée has been obtained, we proceed with a 12-hour cold clarification which allows the clarification which is decisive in the creation of a qualitative harmony typical of Leonia. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a constant and controlled temperature; a part is fermented in wood. In the March following the harvest, the various Chardonnay and Pinot Noir cuvées are blended, followed by tirage (addition of the liqueur de tirage) and refermentation in the bottle with subsequent aging on the yeasts for 36 months. The operation ends with remuage and dégorgement followed by further refinement in the bottle.
