Laetitia
This sparkling wine is made using Trebbiano Spoletino grapes,
which are hand picked during the first few days of October. The
must is fermented with natural yeasts for several days in open vats
without any temperature control. The resulting wine is refined
through racking and oxygenation a number of times over the
subsequent months. It is then bottled without filtering it or adding
any sulphites. Once it has been bottled the yeasts and sugars complete their fermentation process, producing the wine’s signature bubbles.
To guarantee the best possible results from the re-fermentation, the whole wine making process, from harvest to bottling, is done
respecting the phases of the moon.
