made?</b></p><p>Here are the steps in the Freixenet Prosecco winemaking process:</p><ul><li><b>Pressing: </b>Once the finest grapes have been harvested, they are gently pressed in a pneumatic press.&#160;</li></ul><ul><li><b>Primary fermentation:</b> The must (stems, seeds, and skin) undergoes a cold fermentation process to preserve the grapes&#8217; delicate aromas and fruity freshness.&#160;</li></ul><ul><li><b>Second fermentation:</b> After the primary fermentation, the wine (along with the lees) is put into temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for about 10 days.</li></ul><ul><li><b>Bottling:</b> Once the second fermentation is complete, the dead lees are removed through filtration, and the sparkling wine is bottled in a pressurized environment.&#160;</li></ul><p>The result is a fresh and seductive sparkling wine with residual sugar levels ranging from 0&#8211;12 g/l for the Brut, 12&#8211;17g/l for the Extra Dry, and
