About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Cortese grapes grow in southeastern Piedmont, within the communes of Gavi and Novi Ligure. The character of the Alessandria area shapes the grape.

Ageing

The wine is bottled in the spring of the year after the harvest, to keep its crisp freshness and youthful character.

Tasting profile

Dry, delicate and refreshing, with well-balanced acidity. A soft, subtle fruit aroma accompanies the palate and shows the grape's pure varietal character. Its lively elegance is at its finest when the wine is young.
