ALTA LANGA DOCG

PAS DOSÉ MILLESIMATO - METODO CLASSICO

THE WINE

Straw yellow in color, tending towards brilliant gold, it has a fine, continuous and persistent perlage. The bouquet is intense and rich in aromas with nuances of grapefruit, citrus fruit, walnut peach and wildflowers. The palate is ample, fragrant, sapid; the acidity ensures energy and freshness to the Alta Langa. Full-flavored, with
considerable structure but at the same time notable elegance, it is very persistent on the palate.

Serving Temperature: 6°C.
