After the pressing, the turbid must (juice) is left to rest in stainless steel tanks chilled to a temperature of 5-10°C. After approximately 10-12hrs, the limpid part of the must has separated from the deposits and fermentation begins. The 10% of the grapes selected for col de’ Salici brut comes from a top selected vineyards in the Valdobbiadene area.

Specially adapted growing methods allow the grapes to ripen slowly which develops aromatic richness while avoiding high alcohol levels.

The grapes are fermented at a low temperature (18°C) to extract the aromas typical of each varietal and lend complexity to the wine. The wines are left on the lees for 3 months after fermentation. The prise de mousse (or second fermentation that takes place in the bottle) begins once the liqueur de tirage (yeast + a small amount of sugar) is added. This second fermentation takes place in cool cellars (between 9° and 12°C) which is ideal for this phenomenon to occur. Ageing for 9 months on the lees allows the yeast to break down which lends complexity to the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tFood Pairing: A wine for celebrations, holding the promise of conviviality, it may be enjoyed well-chilled (4°-8°C) as an aperitif with hors d’oeuvre and canapés.
