## Summary

A rosé Alta Langa DOCG Metodo Classico from 100% Pinot Nero, full-bodied and structured with a very fine, persistent perlage. About 4,000 bottles a year.

## Tasting notes

Salmon pink with delicate coppery-purple reflections. Intense, complex nose of Pinot Nero skin blended with bread crust, ripe fruit, quince and red woodland berries. Pleasantly structured, savoury and soft, balanced by acidity, with a persistent aftertaste.

## Food pairings

An excellent aperitif. Good with any fish dish, especially salmon and sea bass, and with grilled meat for its savouriness and structure. The producer also suggests it with hazelnut cake and marrons glacés.
