Montalbera Grigne

Grigne is Montalbera's stainless steel Grignolino d'Asti DOC, a light, floral red with a characteristic bitter finish.

Tasting notes

Faint ruby red which tends to orange shades after the first 18 months in the bottle. Floral and delicate nose with hints of marasca cherry, small berries and a delicate exterior of oriental spices. Dry and balanced on the palate, warm and pleasant, with a bitter aftertaste.
