Le Marne Grigie
By Matteo Correggia, Roero, Piemonte, Italy
A Bordeaux-variety blend named after the estate's deep grey marl subsoil, aged at least 4 months in small oak plus 1 year in bottle, in an average of 900 bottles a year; the 2021 vintage scored 94 points from Vinous.
Pairs well with
Porcini, chanterelles and ovoli mushrooms cooked in shank juices, recommended by Ristorante Davide Palluda in Canale
