Product description
In Monferrato, they call it ‘The Noble Rebel’. And it certainly deserves that name. Grignolino is a wine that should not be judged by its appearance: light in colour, almost crystal-clear, yet powerful and intense in aroma and flavour. It used to be the wine of noble families and aristocratic banquets. Today, it is a fine wine that deserves more attention than it receives. Its name may refer to the dialect word ‘grignola’, meaning grape seed, which gives this variety its characteristic delicate tannins.
Fermentation and malolactic fermentation both take place in stainless steel. After ageing in stainless steel, the wine spends a further few months in the bottle. In the glass, it is pale red with orange highlights and has an intense bouquet. Floral notes and strawberry are balanced by the characteristic black pepper. On the palate, it is harmonious, elegant and pleasantly tannic with a lingering finish.
Grignolino is excellent with starters, cold meats, fish, medium-matured cheeses and the typical Piedmontese fritto misto. Serve at 16–18°C.

To guarantee safe delivery, it is therefore also a requirement that orders are always made in multiples of 6 bottles.
