The grapes were picked in the early morning, and quickly pressed off skins into tank for fermentation with some solids to provide complexity and richness. Weekly stirring of the yeast lees added complexity and ensured freshness. The principle behind blending our Prosecco is that we finish with a more complete, complex and consistent wine. Using 2023 base wine as the starting point up to 3 previous vintages of base wine have been used. The blended base wine was Charmat fermented slowly at 14°C with the natural CO2 produced being retained in the wine. After completion of the secondary fermentation the wine received a small addition of expedition liquor to provide the final balance and structure\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFOOD MATCHES: \u003c\/strong\u003eEnjoy this wine with panzerotti layered with mozzarella and tomato\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWINE ANALYSIS:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eALC\/VOL: 11.5% pH: 2.99 TA: 7.05 g\/L RS: 11 g\/L\u003cbr\u003eVEGAN FRIENDLY\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victorian Alps Wine Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52376120230168,"sku":"VRPRONVL7-DO","price":200.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/6733\/4168\/files\/Valle-del-Re-Proscco-NV-low-res.png?v=1783490672","url":"https:\/\/victorianalpswineco.com.au\/products\/valle-del-re-2023-pinot-grigio-12-pack-copy","provider":"Victorian Alps Wine Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
