Tasting Notes

This Riviera Ligure di Ponente DOC captures the distinctive personality of Liguria terroir. At 13% alcohol, it presents a well-balanced and harmonious profile. Crafted from Rossese 100% , this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards located in the hills of the hinterland of Albenga in the area of Pratogrande, in the Campochiesa district. Vinification: alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts at controlled temperature with maceration on the skins for 3 weeks. The wine is aged 10 months in stainless steel tanks on the fine lees.
