This is the first time the winery has bottled this beauty! The grapes come from some of the oldest plantings of Petite Rouge in all of Aosta. The delicate salmon colour evokes Provençal comparisons. The nose is evolved and aromatic, with black currant, acacia blossom and raspberry. Medium-bodied, with tingling acidity, the fruits replay on the palate, along with some rather interesting stone fruit elements. Chill lightly and serve with a thin crust mushroom and truffle pizza, fried white fish or grilled root vegetables.
