In contrast to other Franciacorta wines, this wine is produced by the soft pressing of white grapes only. The must is fermented at a low temperature of between 14 and 16 °C. The addition of a relatively small amount of sugar during the bottling phase (18 g/l rather than 24 g/l) results in a different second fermentation, producing a lower level of pressure in the bottle and thus creating a silkier, creamier wine. Maturation on the lees for 24/48 months and 3 months of refinement in the bottle.
