“Vineyards are located in the heart of an area historically suitable to the cultivation of Moscato Bianco, where this variety has been cultivated for hundreds of years. The “Canelli” denomination has limited grape from vineyards with lower yields than Moscato d’Asti DOCG requirements. Grapes destined for P Nivole come only from vineyards on hilly slopes with excellent sun exposure.
Stefano Chiarlo, winemaker
Vinification:Soft pressing of the whole grape; the must is stored in stainless steel tanks at-2°C, and then undergoes slow fermentation at controlled temperature in autoclave, until it reaches an alcohol content of 5%. During this process, part of the carbon dioxide developed during fermentation is “trapped” in the wine, giving it a natural and light effervescence. Prior to bottling, the wine undergoes microfiltration to develop transparency and purity, also halting any further fermentation of the yeasts.
