Alta Langa Extra Brut Metodo Classico by Ettore Germano (Italian Sparkling Wine)

The grapes are hand harvested and places into small plastic baskets, and are brought to the winery where they are immediately pressed in whole cluster, taking the skins off the must. The alcoholic fermentation for both grapes will be kept at a low temperature during this fermentation A part of the base is refined in medium-sized not toasted barrels, while the remaining part remains into steel tanks. Once the alcoholic fermentation has completed the wine will remain on the lees for a period of refinement, at this time-periodic bétonnage are carried out. At the end of this period, the wine will age on its lees for another minimum 30 months before the disgorgement and dosage (addition of liqueur d'expedition).
