The Garganega vine is the most important white grape variety in the province of Vicenza. With a myriad of scents among which almond and white flowers stand out, Garganega is a balance of extracts and sugars. With pentagonal leaves with pronounced teeth; long, cylindrical and slightly loose bunches. Golden yellow grapes, the Garganega in this wine is coming from the foothills, in the Giaroni area.
The grapes, transported to the cellar with bins boxes to avoid crushing, are destemmed and subjected to soft pressing. The first fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature, while the second fermentation in an autoclave is at low temperatures with selected yeasts, according to the Charmat Method. The fine and persistent perlage is given by the second fermentation in an autoclave lasting 3-4 months.
