Vintage: 2020

Vitigno: Grignolino

This lable is dedicated to Ottavio, Nadia's dad.
Grignolino from young vines planted over sand, silt and limestone. Destemmed grapes macerated for two months in stainless steel before being pressed off info cement tanks. Very pale red with amazing flavours of blood orange and chinotto.

The name of this variety comes from the word "grignole", dialect for pips as this grape presents numerous seeds, more than most other varieties. Light in colour but with a great tannin structure, both from skin & pips, this is a very much loved grape by piedmontese people. Grignolino is stimulating, full of aromas and flavours of berry, herbs and spices with bright acidity and freshness.

Service tips: Serve it at 14 C with Battuta di Manzo "Beef Tartare". Beetroot tartare and button mushroom.
