Grignolino d'Asti

Medium

Cork

From 50-year-old vines, Monferace sees extended skin maceration and long ageing in a mix of tonneaux and small casks to soften Grignolino’s significant tannins. The wine is very pale, almost brick in hue, yet still very much in its youth. Captivating scents of eucalyptus, sandalwood, carob and juniper with an equally fascinating palate, medium in weight, bringing flavours of rosehip tea buoyed by tangy, tingly acidity. Still tightly wound, the densely packed tannins release slowly to a spicy, peppery finish.
