GUSSAGO CASTLE FRANCIACORTA CLUB CUVEE 2016 CL.75

100% Chardonnay grapes, the grapes are harvested by hand and placed in 18 kg crates, to preserve the perfectly intact bunches during transport to the winery.

Immediately after the harvest, the refrigerated grapes are loaded into a special press that performs a progressive soft pressing, in order to extract the best part of the juice: the free-run must.

Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks with constant control of fermentation temperatures.

In the following spring a careful study is carried out on the cutting of the bases deriving from the best company CRUs so that the grapes are complementary

to the others in achieving the ideal identity.

During the harvest, bottling is carried out (tirage), with a lower quantity of sugars, in order to obtain a lower pressure in the bottle, less than 5 atmospheres, which

determines the peculiar gustatory softness. This is followed by an aging in contact with the yeasts for 30 months, after disgorging (dégorgement) the bottles rest in the cellar for a further 5 months.
