More informations about the variety Brachetto
Sweet, lightly sparkling reds with a clear ruby robe, a light and refreshing palate (low alcohol, ~5.5%), with intense, refined aromas of rose, wild strawberry, raspberry, geranium, fresh grape and airy muscat. Sweetness balanced by fine bubbles. Absolute star of Brachetto d'Acqui DOCG in Piedmont (Asti and Alessandria provinces), a festive wine served with red fruit desserts. Autochthonous aromatic Piedmontese variety, related to Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains.
