fermentation


Explanation:
If it's the natural process that gets wine to be sparkling. There are different types of fermentation so it's up to you to choose the one that suits your text. See link:

I guess the right term is "bottle fermentation" because it implies "presa di spuma" as well...

The frase "production of sparkling wine" gives 3,920 Google hits.
I am adding an example of its usage.
"A process for the production of sparkling wine, wherein during secondary fermentation a second yeast portion having a reduced autolysis stability is added."

sparkling winemaking method


Explanation:
Pnina is quite close.

"Spumantizzazione" here specifies which sparkling winemaking method - the classic method in this case - was used for this product and "presa di spuma" (prise de mousse) refers to bottle refermentation.
