Braghè
By Claudio Mariotto, Colli Tortonesi, Piemonte, Italy
Freisa, a Piemontese grape with a history of over 500 years locally, vinified with a short maceration and aged briefly in steel and bottle.
Tasting notes
Elegant and delicate, with an undertone of rose, morello cherry and raspberry that turns pleasantly musky with age. Fresh and lively on the palate.
