FAQ

What kind of wine is Scighera Bianco?2026-06-29T17:15:00+02:00

Scighera Bianco is an organic sparkling white wine produced using the Ancestral Method (Pét-Nat). It is a naturally sparkling wine that undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle, is unfiltered, and retains natural lees at the bottom, giving it a cloudy appearance and an authentic character.

What does Pét-Nat or Ancestral Method mean?2026-06-29T17:15:19+02:00

Pétillant Naturel (Pét-Nat) is a winemaking method in which the wine completes fermentation directly in the bottle, without the addition of sugar or external yeasts. This process creates natural bubbles that are softer and more spontaneous than those produced by the traditional or Charmat methods.

Why Scighera Bianco is unfiltered?2026-06-29T17:18:46+02:00

Scighera Bianco appears milky visual effect because it is unfiltered and retains its natural lees in the bottle. When resuspended, these lees enrich the wine with aromas and complexity, contributing notes of bread, citrus, and aromatic herbs.

How should a Pét-Nat wine be served?2026-06-29T17:19:56+02:00

To fully enjoy Scighera Bianco Pét-Nat, it is recommended to serve it at 6–8°C, allow the bottle to rest after transport, and gently invert it before opening to resuspend the lees. Open carefully to manage the natural pressure.
