Langhe Favorita
By Tonino Marchisio, Roero, Piemonte, Italy
A fresh Favorita from Castellinaldo, made and aged in steel. The producer gives it a lifespan of 2-3 years.
Tasting notes
Pale, bright straw yellow with greenish reflections. Floral notes, white and yellow fruit and citrus peel, very fresh with almost aromatic hints. Dry, lively and savoury on the palate, slightly tart, with an almond aftertaste and a clean finish.
Pairs well with
Aperitif or starter; works with light white meats, fish, grilled vegetables and stretched-curd cheeses; also traditional dishes and seafood.
