Lightly sparkling Freisa from La Morra and Alba, 100% Freisa planted in 1970, made in steel with no wood.
Tasting notes
Purple red with ruby shades and a light carmine pink foam. Fresh, delicate, intense nose of red fruit such as redcurrant and wild strawberry. Soft and delicate, slightly lively thanks to the natural refermentation, with excellent acid-tannin balance.
