PRODUCTION AREA
Tenuta Zana, Castel Boglione, Piedmont

VARIETY
70% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir

WINEMAKING
Harvested around mid-August, grapes harvested and brought to the cellar in boxes for soft and progressive pressing. The must is then fermented in steel at a controlled temperature until the sugars run out, then, after an initial rough racking, it is left to refine on its fine lees. The following spring it is added with sugars and selected yeasts, then bottled. Stored in a cool place away from light, refermentation and second fermentation will take place in these, so they can rest in contact with their yeasts for a minimum of 33 months. After this period they are transferred to the pupitres for the traditional manual remuage for clarification and to obtain the thickening of the natural sediment in the neck of the bottles. It will then be disgorged, filled with the same wine and recorked.

CHARACTERISTICS
Not too deep yellow color, fine and persistent perlage. The aroma is fine, full-bodied and delicate. The freshness of the acidity pairs well with the bread crust aftertaste.
