METODO CLASSICO
Spumante Brut
In 2011 we decided to propose the Chardonnay and Grechetto blend again, but in a sparkling version this time, and this has proven itself to be a winning bet right away, thanks to the soil and climatic conditions, which bring out all the aromatic characteristics, since the soil is rich in sandstone and there is an extreme temperature range from day to night.
