## Wine making process

Ferrari Brut Organic is produced using the traditional method, also known as Metodo Classico, which involves a secondary fermentation within the bottle. This process is crucial for developing the wine's effervescence and complex character. The wine is aged on its lees for a minimum of two years, a practice that contributes to its texture and depth. The grapes are sourced from vineyards located at altitudes ranging from 300 to 700 meters. The winery holds organic certification and is recognized for its commitment to biodiversity and environmental sustainability.
