## Summary

Eresia is I Dof Mati's 100% Erbaluce, a native grape the producer calls the reddest of whites for its full-bodied, floral, fruity style. Its name and the bishop chess piece on the label nod to Fara Novarese, founded by bishops in the 10th century.

## Tasting notes

Bright straw yellow. The native grape behind Eresia is considered the most "red" of white varieties, with a full-bodied, floral and fruity character, notes of aromatic herbs and a pronounced mineral note.

## Food pairings

Excellent as an aperitif, and with fish dishes or cheese.
