Our classical process is the Mantonico. It is a traditional local grape, which is now becoming more and more popular.

Our winemaking technique allowed us to create a young Spumante from it, which needs a 16 months refinement on yeasts.

We decided to produce a Brut with 6g/l sugar. We chose such a low sugar quantity, in order to keep the original scent and taste, which is bitter and mineral. It also has a very enjoyable floral taste that reminds of our incredible enchanting area.
