Fratelli Aresca Testabalorda

Grignolino is one of the oldest and noblest native grape varieties of Piemonte, its production limited to the Monferrato area. It gives wines with qualities of finesse, elegance and lightness that are hard to match among other reds.

Tasting notes

Pale cherry-red colour. Perfume of rose and white pepper. The palate echoes the notes of rose and fruit expressed on the nose.
