The second fermentation takes place in autoclave according to the standards of the Charmat method.

There are also hints of exotic fruit, primarily pineapple, and a few whiffs of thyme, on a crunchy bread finish. This Prosecco is fresh, dry, elegant, with great balance, and has a nice character that makes it complete. “Fagher”, a modern Prosecco, a model sparkling wine, even more prestigious in Magnum format.
