Light, elegant reds with a clear ruby robe (often compared to Pinot Noir), fine but firm tannins and lively acidity, with aromas of red cherry, raspberry, rose, spice, white pepper and herbal notes. Airy palate, slightly bitter finish. Star of Grignolino d'Asti DOC and Grignolino del Monferrato Casalese DOC in the Piedmontese hills. This autochthonous Piedmontese variety takes its name from grignole (the many pips it contains).
