Tasting Notes: Delicate ruby red, sweet and sparkling with fine bead, it expresses the elegant aromas of roses and raspberries, typical of the Brachetto grape. Aromatic, delicate and harmonious on the palate.

The grapes are manually selected and harvested at the beginning of September. They're then destemmed and macerated on the skins for 2 to 3 days in order to extract the desired color; the juice is then clarified and sent to fermentation which takes place in temperature-controlled pressurized tanks and is interrupted through filtration when reaching 5% alcohol, and a delicate perlage (lightly sparkling). No sugar is added.
