A classic of Piedmont, this is still an introduction for many newcomers to wine and so it is enjoying new-found popularity as people become re-d'Acqui-ainted (sorry) with its sweet, easy-drinking, fruity and elegant flair. This will be a super hit with berry desserts, chocolate-covered cherries or when served as an aperitif and is sure to brighten any occasion. |
