Sparkling
Castel del Mago Rosé
By Vinchio Vaglio, Monferrato, Piemonte, Italy
Our Rosé Extra Dry “Castel del Mago” has been created to complete Vinchio Vaglio sparkling range. The name refers to a story written by the famous writer from Vinchio, Davide Lajolo, when he used it to describe one of the most fascinating and mysterious places of the Natural Park Reserve Val Sarmassa, a natural area among the Vinchio, Vaglio Serra and Incisa Scapaccino villages.
Pairs well with
Aperitifs, light starters, fish dishes, all meal long especially on summer tables. Unusual but very pleasant pairing with desserts based on dried fruit.
