## Wine making process

The Omaggio Pet Nat Syrah Rosé is produced using the méthode ancestrale, where the wine undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle to create its natural effervescence. Following a single day of skin maceration, the must is spontaneously fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged for nine months on its lees before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. The residual sugar is managed to ensure a controlled secondary fermentation in the bottle.
