Red
Opera Prima
By Ferraris Agricola, Monferrato, Piemonte, Italy
Made only in exceptional years, from a small, very sandy plot in the heart of the Ruché area; the estate describes it as born from the bond between a grandson and his grandfather.
Tasting notes
Deep ruby red, almost impenetrable to the eye. Very elegant on the nose, with notes of red fruit such as blackberry and cherry in spirit. Unexpectedly balanced on the palate, combining body with vibrant freshness.
