WINE NAME
Franciacorta D.O.C.G. “Rosé”.
GRAPE VARIETY
Pinot Nero and Chardonnay .
SOIL COMPOSITION
Alluvional morain soil of early origin with an extremely sandy structure and very frequent presence of morain stones.
HARVEST TIMING
Grapes are picked by hand and transported in small crates to the winery. The Harvest is never later than the end of August.
VINIFICATION
Vigna Dorata’s Rosé is vinified in stainless steel tanks with maceration on punched down skins for a few hours depending on the year. The aforementioned procedure gives this wine its peculiar, delicate and elegant colour. The must is subsequently separated from the pomace and completes its fermentation at a controlled temperature.
FOAM FORMATION
Tirage takes place during March and April, wherease foam formation and maturation on stacks can take from 24 to 36 months, depending on the year in the controlled temperature of our aging rooms.
DISGORGING
When the Rosé has reached the desired maturity, “Liqueur d’expedition”, prepared with vintage wines, is added for disgorging. This wine is only sold to the public in the “Brut” version and contains a sugar residue of aproximately 7 g/l. After a three month-refining in the winery the Franciacorta DOCG is bottled and ready for shipping.
