A smooth and full-bodied Italian red wine with generous layers of dark red fruit and smoke. Proof that Piemonte wines don't have to be nebbiolo to shine!

Made mainly with Grenache Blanc and a splash of Macabeu, this wine is lightly aromatic with green apple, citrus and floral notes with a refreshing, appetising finish. A lovely easy drinker, perfect for sharing with friends. It has a smoothness and gentle weight that makes it pair beautifully with a range of food, particularly chicken dishes.
