Food Matching Note:
This wine is made by a fish addict so it is not surprising that it goes extremely well with fish, especially richer seafood dishes. Also try it with other local specialities - artichokes, coniglio alla Ligure, torta verde, foccaccia drenched in Taggiasca olive oil and farinata.
Tasting Note:
Bright straw yellow in the glass with an intense bouquet of peaches, acacia honey and broom flowers. These characteristics follow-through on the palate, with full body, incredible texture and a peppery twist. Simultaneously dry, fruity and structured.

Vinification Note:
The Pigato grapes are farmed on dry stone wall terraces on the Ligurian hillsides with minimal mechanisation. At the winery the grapes are rested with a 24 hour period of cold maceration prior to pneumatic pressing, clarification, filtration, fermentation on natural yeasts at around 18-20C, cold stabilisation, filtration and bottling.
