PRODUCTION PROCESS:

The I Castei Spumante, after an initial fermentation process, is placed in oak barriques to preserve and enhance its qualities. The Cuvées are assembled together with the addition of selected yeast and raw cane sugar to begin the second fermentation called “second fermentation” in bottles strictly in a horizontal position. At the end of the cycle, the yeast colonies inside the bottles are transferred through the rémuage to the necks of the bottles ready for disgorgement. At this point the bottles are disgorged by hand according to the ancient French method of dégorgement done strictly à la volée.
