## Summary

A limited-production white from a single vineyard in Neive known locally as Mun Crü ('raw bricks' in Piedmontese dialect), macerated on the skins for 8 days and aged only in steel.

## Tasting notes

Bright, intense yellow with golden reflections. Elegant floral notes of jasmine, hints of sweet citrus peel, white peach and acacia honey. Intriguing, flavourful structure, round and balanced, savoury with a long finish.

Goes very well with appetizers, first courses, white or red meats, and fresh to medium-aged cheeses.
