Once got the over-pressured desired which is around 6 bar, the wine has to be cooled at -4°C to stop the fermentation and to help the stabilization. Then the bottles are kept under temperature control for one month to help the natural aging on contact with yeasts. Once finished it takes place the filtration and the isobaric bottling.
