Tasting note
Charming wine made from Piedmont's third red grape (after more prestigious and expensive, Nebbiolo and Barbera), this is packed with dark fruit and headily perfumed with almonds and spice.
Vinification
Fermentation in stainless steel vats for 6-8 days at a temperature of 24-25° C, followed by the malolactic fermentation. A short stay in steel precedes bottling, which is carried out in the spring following the harvest. The wine is released after a few months of ageing in the bottle.
Food Match
A fine match for hot hors-d'oeuvres, pasta, vegetables and not overly-elaborate meat dishes.
