Innovation in Winemaking – Underwater Aging
Mare Santo Wines has pioneered an extraordinary aging process by submerging bottles of sparkling wine at precise depths in the Adriatic Sea. This innovative technique leverages the constant temperature, gentle underwater currents, and lack of oxygen exposure to create optimal conditions for aging. The benefits of this method include:
- Consistent Temperature Control: The sea provides stable temperatures, preventing oxidation and premature aging.
- Gentle Movements & Pressure: The natural water pressure and motion enhance micro-oxygenation, leading to improved structure and texture.
- Minimal Light Exposure: Protects the wine from UV damage, preserving its delicate characteristics.
