Winery Information
The Sacchetto family has been making wine for almost a century in the Veneto wine region of northeastern Italy. The estate of 65 hectares was founded in the 1920s by Sisto Sacchetto and remains a true family winery. Sisto?s son, Filiberto, modernised the winery in the 1980s and later passed the winery to his son, Paolo Sacchetto. The family members now live in the Prapian Estate, which can be found in the DOCG Valdobbiadene Prosecco area. The highest-quality Proseccos come from this region. They produce a variety of wines, from the Fili line to spumante, frizzanti, and still wines. Spumante wines have strong effervescence and are considered fully sparkling, while frizzanti wines are gently sparkling.
Vinification
The grapes for Fili Prosecco are de-stalked and gently pressed, then fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 18-20 degrees Celsius. Later, the Fili Prosecco wine is blended and re-fermented in pressurized tanks, with the addition of local yeasts for ?prise de mousse,? or the creation of foam and effervescence. This requires perfect temperature control for the best results of fine bubbles. Yeasts feed on the residual sugars in the wine and produce carbon dioxide effervescence as a result. The yeast is filtered out after fermentation. It is known as the Charmat method, an Italian technique for creating sparkling wine invented in 1895. It is more efficient than the traditional method used to create Champagne and other European wines, hence this wine?s great value.
