Pale pink with the orange rim typical of Nebbiolo. Fresh, with white flowers and fruit; also raspberry, strawberry and rose petals. Marked acidity and easy drinking, with the elegance of Nebbiolo.

Pairs well with

Aperitif or starter; works with fresh and raw fish, vegetables, stretched-curd cheeses, light first courses and white meats; also pizza and shellfish.
