Tasting Notes

A sweet, lively wine produced with 100% Brachetto grapes. Mild ruby red in color, its aromas reminds of roses and freshly picked strawberries. On the palate it is fresh and rich in fruity aromas of raspberry and ribes. Excellent as a dessert wine, it will pair beautifully with fruit tarts, fruit salads, chocolate-covered strawberries, and all chocolate based desserts. Simply delicious.
