Freisa di Chieri Spumante Dolce

Terre dei Santi Freisa di Chieri Spumante Dolce

A sweet sparkling red from Freisa, taking advantage of the grape's semi-aromatic character.

Tasting notes

Ruby red. Floral and fruity, with raspberry and cherry, and in warmer vintages black fruit and blackcurrant. Sweet, with fine, unobtrusive bubbles; delicate and persistent, with red fruit on the finish.

Pairs well with

Desserts and dry pastries such as focaccia di Chieri, panettone and colomba.
