Zonin Prosecco 1821 - Italian Sparkling Wine

Vinification Process:Musts are clarified with bentonite and PVPP, and then sent to fermentation tanks. The fermentation process is done in temperature controlled (16-18C) stainless steel tanks with the addition of selected yeasts. After the first fermentation the wine is kept on yeasts until the second fermentation (sparkling process). The second fermentation happens in autoclave through addition of sugar and most re-fermented by selected added yeasts. When the desired sugar level is achieved the fermentation process is interrupted by temperature reduction, and is kept in the same autoclave until final filtration and bottling.Bottling Process:When the production process is completed and if product analysis are satisfactory, the product is sent to the bottling process. Bottles are washed and rinsed in a dedicated rinser using water filtered at 0.20 micron, then the filling process starts. Bottles are filled according and in conformity with European legislation; bottles with liquid levels below theminimum standard allowed are automatically detected and removed from the bottling line. After filling and level check bottles are sent to capping (using natural mushroom cork), positioning of the wire cage, application of the capsule, application of front and back labels, printing of product lot, and final optic automatic check that all the elements are correctly in place. After bottling and labelling bottles are automatically positioned inside boxes, on which product labels are applied before weight check and palletising. On each pallet a label is applied with a barcode identifying the location in the warehouse.
