Rosé wine

Langhe d.o.c. Rosé

In the glass, this wine is a transparent pale rose with an orange meniscus, typical of the Nebbiolo grape. Fresh perfumes of violet and raspberry mingle with berry fruit and cherry bon-bon, enveloping the senses. Clean taste of fresh fruit with exotic notes intersects with subtle nuances of citrus.

The soft pressing separates the skins from the must, which is then decanted into thermostatted tanks at 11°C for 12 hours. Once decanted the must ferments for about 20 days at 18°C
