The grapes for this wine are sourced from the rolling hills of north eastern Italy.

Whole white grapes are put into the pneumatic press for soft pressing and the resulting must, after a first racking, is put into controlled temperature tanks where it remains until it is used for the production of the sparkling wine. The red grapes, after pressing, are put into tanks where a soft maceration for extraction of colour and a few tannins takes place at a controlled temperature. at the same time the aroma is enhanced. Then the white must and a small part of the red wine are mixed. The resulting cuvee with added yeast cultures selected by La Gioiosa is the put into vessels where fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 15-16C to enchance all the harvest fragrances. Upon reaching the required alcohol and sugar content fermentation is stopped by refrigeration. After being left for at least two months in contact with the yeasts, the sparkling wine is ready for bottling.
