The vineyards are situated between five hundred and seven hundred metres above sea level, an ideal altitude to ensure optimal ripening and preserve vibrant freshness. The \u003cstrong\u003efluvio-glacial and volcanic soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, which are generally shallow, impart a distinct \u003cstrong\u003esavoury character\u003c\/strong\u003e and great precision on the palate.

The first fermentation of the must takes place at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks and \u003cstrong\u003ebarrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. Once the base wine has matured, the secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle according to the \u003cstrong\u003eTraditional Method\u003c\/strong\u003e. The complexity is achieved through a \u003cstrong\u003elong ageing on the lees\u003c\/strong\u003e for seventy months before disgorgement. This maturation gives the wine an enveloping profile, while maintaining a dry and expressive Brut dosage.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eRiserva Graal Trentodoc\u003c\/strong\u003e by Altemasi was created as a tribute to high-altitude vineyards and takes its name from the legendary chalice of the Arthurian cycle.
