Malvasia is a vine with a unique history. Its name derives from the contraction of the name of the Greek city of "Monemvasia" located in the Peloponnese and means "one door", as the port of access to the fortress had only one entrance. The name Monemvasia was Italianized into "Malvasia" by the Venetians who began to import it between 1500 and 1700. Thanks to them, Malvasia spread throughout the Mediterranean area where, following crossbreeding with local vines, it gave birth to different vines named Malvasia (Istriana del Lazio, Bosa delle Lipari and others).

Harvest: Selection in the vineyard of the healthiest and most mature grapes harvested by hand in boxes in the second decade of September when the grapes have reached a degree of ripeness that allows for a good natural alcohol content in the bottle. Vinification : After crushing-destemming and soft pressing, fermentation takes place by means of a small mass of grapes harvested 10 days before, which ensures a pied de cuve of native yeasts, the only ones able to express our terroir. The fermentation is carried out at low temperatures (13-14 ° C) and, before the total exhaustion of the grape sugars, the temperature is further lowered (2-4 ° C) to stop the fermentation. After bottling without further additions of sugars and yeasts, the second fermentation takes place. The sparkling wine obtained with this method, since it does not require disgorgement, has a natural turbidity due to the yeasts and this allows for greater aromatic complexity and better shelf life.
