The San Fermo Valdobbiadene DOCG Prosecco Superiore Brut is produced through a natural fermentation of their glera grapes grown in the Conegliano hills, then refermented and matured over a number of months first in steel then in the bottle. This Prosecco expresses the renowned qualities classic to the glacier-derived morainic hills where these grapes are grown. In the glass, it appears luminous and sparkling, with a dense, continuous bead of pin-point bubbles. The bouquet is delicate and fragrant, the palate savory with a fine vein of minerality, and the finish concludes with a tasty tang of crisp walnut husk.
ORIGIN OF THE NAME: San Fermo is the name of the country church adjacent to the vineyard where these grapes are grown.
VINIFICATION: After the clusters are de-stemmed and the grapes gently pressed, the must is gravity-settled then fermented at 18-20°C. The wine matures sur lie 3 months. The second fermentation is performed in accord with the Italian method, in 100hl fermenters for a period of some 2 months.
