Type of history and area of ​​origin: Organic brut sparkling wine with charmat method

The passion and knowledge received from internships and work experiences with French producers led us to experiment and transfer their methods of vinification and fermentation to our grapes. The collaboration relationship with our friend Oenologist and Champagne producer Julian Gout graduated from the Faculty of Sciences of Reims-Champagne between our Oenologist Lamberto Tosi and has allowed us to realize our charmat method. The experiences made with the vinification in Camarque at producers of the famous Vin de Sable, have helped us in the realization of our Charmat method. The result of three months of aging in autoclave, this is one of the first Charmat Methods of the Tuscan coast. Obtained from grapes harvested manually in the third week of August. The straw yellow color and its aromas make it a truly interesting sparkling wine.
The grapes come from our vineyards between Viareggio and Torre del Lago, in Villa Borbone, on the border with the Natural Park of S. Rossore and Massaciuccoli. Its freshness makes it excellent for aperitifs and its strong character and slightly salty finish also recommend it for fish-based meals.
