They follow and adopt the principles of The Green Experience protocol
Straw yellow color with green reflections.
The nose is clean, precise and well defined. Some sensations of exotic fruit and gentle flowers are distinguished by enthusiasm, followed by some notes of aromatic herbs in the background. There are also citrus and sea notes.
On the palate it is pleasant, comfortable and light-heartedly gastronomic. Excellent, but really the sum of hardness, with minerality, so vivid that it can almost be collected.
The finish is quite persistent, for a white wine that is overall pleasant and satisfying.
Ideal with all vegetable and fish dishes, lightly cooked or not cooked at all. In particular, it greatly accompanies the Ligurian-Piedmontese vegetable-based culinary tradition. Fabulous with “frisceu de Baccalà” or when “de Gianchetti” is in season. What then are no longer whitebait, because it is forbidden to fish and sell, but lipsticks.
Langhe Favorita 2019 Antica Cascina dei Conti di Roero
Favorita is a wandering grape variety. Twin brother of Vermentino, when he arrives in Piedmont he changes his name and adapts perfectly to the Roero environment.
The grapes come from the municipality of Vezza d’Alba, where the soil is sandy and calcareous.
Harvested by hand, the grapes are immediately separated from the peel, after which they carry out alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel containers at a controlled temperature of 13-14 C °. . Refine in the same steel containers for a period of 4 months.
