THE WINERY

Since the very beginning, Mionetto has always been a modern, innovative company able to anticipate fashions and trends whilst at the same time maintaining a strong bond with the traditions of its homeland, a feature which still today sets it apart from other sparkling wine producers. Passion, tradition, research and excellence are the fundamental values of this winery and its brand, each with their own unique, unmistakable style.

In 1982, the Mionetto family introduced autoclave fermentation by switching to the Charmat method, which allows for better preservation of the flavors and aromas of Prosecco. After an initial processing phase involving soft pressing and the first temperature-controlled fermentation that takes place at the facilities of selected producers, using the Charmat method, the second fermentation takes place in autoclaves instead of individual bottles. This additional temperature-controlled fermentation is recommended for Prosecco in order to help maintain the freshness and aroma typical of the grape in the bottling phase. Therefore, the winemakers' work at Mionetto does not only involve the production of high-quality wine but also entails maintaining an effective partnership with local producers who have historically supplied grapes for generations. Thanks to these historic relationships, Mionetto has been able to guarantee excellence as far as the quality of grapes purchased and used in the internal winemaking process.
