Table wine, or more correctly today wine without an appellation, is the simplest and freest category in the wine world.

But take care: this does not automatically mean low-quality wine. On the contrary, many artisan and natural producers deliberately choose this category so they can experiment, innovate or avoid regulatory constraints, offering unique wines that break the mould.

Ageing methods used for Seu Spumante Brut Rosé

In stainless steel

Ageing in stainless steel is a winemaking practice aimed at preserving the freshness, aromatic integrity and varietal purity of the wine. It is used above all for white, rosé and young red wines, but also for light, easy-drinking reds that do not require maturation in wood. Stainless steel vessels are inert and impermeable to oxygen, so they do not interact with the wine: this makes it possible to bring out the fruity, floral and mineral component of the grape and of the terroir.
