Ponte Villoni Prosecco

Enjoy with light Italian seafood pasta dishes.

This Prosecco was made using the charmat, or tank, method. After the grapes are harvested in the middle of September, they’re brought to the winery and cold pressed to retain as much flavour as possible. The skins, stalks and seeds are separated and sent to a distillery for the production of Grappa; the juice is filtered several times before undergoing its first fermentation in an open tank.The wine then undergoes its second fermentation. Yeast and additional sugar are added to the still wine in custom pressurised tanks. As the yeast consumes the sugar, it produces carbon dioxide. The specially designed tanks trap this excess gas in the wine, making it sparkle. Once this process is complete, the wine is filtered and bottled, ready for you to enjoy.
