White
Serafina
By Bricco Carlina, Barolo, Piemonte, Italy
Favorita from a north-facing vineyard in Grinzane Cavour planted by the founders in 2014, aged four months on the lees in cement.
Tasting notes
Straw yellow with light green reflections. Fragrant but delicate nose of white flowers, a fresh citrus note, pear and lime. Delicate on the palate with a long, persistent finish and a fresh, mineral vein.
Pairs well with
Raw meat, cured meats that are not too mature, starters, hot and cold appetisers, fish, vegetables and white meats; perfect as an aperitif.
