About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes come from selected vineyards in the heart of the production area. Medium-textured clay-limestone soils are particularly suited to aromatic varieties.

Grapes

Brachetto.

Vinification

A brief cold maceration is followed by gentle pressing. The must is then kept at low temperature until the secondary fermentation, which takes place in an autoclave at a controlled temperature of approximately 15°C.

Technical data

Alcohol: 6.5% vol. Residual sugar: 110 g/L.

Tasting profile

Pale ruby red. The bouquet is aromatic and delicate, with fresh-fruit and rose notes. Sweet, soft, and delicate on the palate, with persistent foam. The wine retains a fresh, floral, aromatic expression strongly reminiscent of the original grapes.

Serving and pairing

Serve at 8–10°C.
