## Summary

Moyé is Cascina Gilli's lightly sparkling Bonarda, a rare Piedmontese variety often confused with the Oltrepo Pavese wine of the same name; it is refermented naturally in autoclave for a soft, easy-drinking style.

## Tasting notes

Soft on the palate, with wide aromas in which blackberry and a delicate spicy note stand out. The moderate liveliness makes it even more pleasant, accentuating freshness while keeping balance.

## Food pairings

Braised or stewed meats, or a traditional Piedmontese fritto misto.
