Tasting Notes

Mr. Veronelli, the most eminent Italian wine researcher, calls Grignolino "the anarchic wine" because it changes according to climatic trend. It is the sole wine, which even if it appears as a "rosè", it has a good structure and a high tannic content that makes it agreeable and lasting. This wine has a light ruby-red colour with orange overtones, it has a light and floreal bouquet. The taste is dry, slightly tannic, bitterish and long-lasting.
