WINE DESCRIPTION

The wine is made from the Brachetto grape, grown in the Acqui appellation, which is known for its ideal vineyard features, including a mild climate and well-draining soils. The winemaking process involves a careful selection of the best grapes, followed by a gentle pressing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine's delicate aromas and flavors. The resulting wine is a beautiful shade of ruby red, with a sweet and fruity bouquet of strawberries and raspberries. On the palate, it is light and refreshing, with a lively effervescence and a pleasantly sweet finish.
