## Summary

A rosé sparkling wine, first vintage 2009, dedicated by Alberto to his mother Ida Costa Arlunno, a strong woman who loved the land of Ghemme and lived for her family.

## Tasting notes

Cherry-red colour, crystalline, with fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, fruity notes recalling red apple and floral violet. Ready to drink, soft, fresh, with an inviting sapidity.

## Food pairings

Ideal as an aperitif. Very enjoyable throughout a meal thanks to the character given by the Nebbiolo grape.
