ORIGIN
The Sparkling Bacaro by Perlage derives from the area called  Farra Soligo, particularly suitable for its limestone soils and high temperature ranges.
In these hills is indeed one of the most famous and important area of Italy for oenology, the "road of prosecco" an historic crossroads of culture (dating back to 1966) and wine culture, which with its 35 km stretches from Conegliano to Valdobbiadene.
The wine produced in this area has obtained the designation of origin, DOC ConeglianoValdobbiadene.

THE COMPANY

The deep respect for tradition of a land that has made and continues to give the world's great wines, and responsibility for future generations, led the company in 1981 Perlage to adopt the path of organic growing.
This has enabled it to obtain various certifications, including the latest compliance to the standard ISO 9001:2000, in 2005.

WINE - MAKING
Obtaining a quality wine undoubtedly requires the use only of wine grape quality.
Il Sparkling Bacaro by Perlage is obtained from the hill called “San Gallo” where all the vineyards are cultivated only using organic methods.
Soft pressing to obtain just free-run juice, there is absence of maceration, or contact between juice and skins.
The fermentation, thanks to the action of yeast, transforms sugar into alcohol and other minors substances fundamental to the aroma and the structure of wine. It happens in steel tanks at a constant temperature of 18 to 20 degrees to prevent bacterial attacks.
After the fermentation, the wine undergoes a number of rackings before being stored “sur lie” method used for sparkling wine bottle.
Maturation: 18 months

SPARKLING WINE METHOD
Is used the Charmat method, which is  able to keep better the elegance of the fragrances and freshness of fruity aromas.
That’s how Sparkling Bacaro  is born.
