Le Contesse Pinot Nero Spumante Brut is an Italian dry white sparkling wine . It was made from 100% hand-picked Pinot Noir grapes, carefully selected from the best vineyards near the Congeliano Mountains, Treviso wine region, Italy (40 m above sea level). The wine is the result of a pearl process called "Long Charmat".
After manual harvesting of the grapes, it undergoes cold static decantation only by light pressing and cleaning of the must. A portion of the must is then stored refrigerated while the remainder of the mixture is fermented at a controlled temperature. The second fermentation takes place in pressurized vessels with selected yeast, with the help of which it matures and acquires its effervescence for another 9-12 months. After this step, the wine is bottled and left to mature in temperature-controlled warehouses for several more weeks.
