Tasting profile (AI-generated)

Structure: light-bodied, medium tannin, high acidity, dry

A light, brisk red from Piedmont's Freisa grape, showing bright red berry and floral aromas with a touch of spice and a slightly rustic, grippy edge. High acidity and fine but noticeable tannins make it a refreshing, food-friendly wine rather than a rich or heavy one. It's best enjoyed young and slightly chilled alongside everyday Italian fare.
