Fattoria AL FIORE / Spumante 2024 (White Sparkling) 750ml

A fusion of pétillant and the Champagne method.
We continue to make all our wines using the natural method, but there have been several challenges with sparkling wines. To make sparkling wine, you can either bottle during primary fermentation in the bottle or add juice, sugar, and yeast for secondary fermentation in the bottle. With pét-nat (primary fermentation in the bottle), a large amount of sediment settles at the bottom after fermentation, and when opened, the gas pressure stirs up the sediment, resulting in a cloudy sparkling wine.
Also, in the case of secondary fermentation in the bottle, the wine that has finished fermenting is stored in barrels, and sugar, juice, liqueur, yeast, and nutrients are added to that wine to cause secondary fermentation in the bottle and generate gas. The former is the natural method but can cause cloudiness. The latter is clean but not a natural method. So, we tried making a wine by strengthening the gas pressure during primary fermentation in the bottle and performing disgorging—a process in the Champagne method that removes sediment after secondary fermentation in the bottle—hoping to create a clean wine in both flavor and color without any additives.
However, this time, since we assumed primary fermentation in the bottle, the initial gas pressure was low, resulting in a clean, lightly sparkling wine. The initial stage experiment was a great success, and next time we will adjust and bottle it so that the gas pressure can be raised to the level of a final Champagne.
Since the bubbles are a bit restrained at about 1.5 atmospheres, the price range is also set a little lower, but the flavor cost
The top performance is outstanding! We hope you enjoy it as a winter sparkling wine.
