Organic wine - profile

• Color: The wine has a lively ruby ​​color with yellow-orange highlights.
• Nose: it opens on a delicate aromatic bouquet of roses, shrubs and apricots.
• Palate: These aromas are also noticeable in the mouth, with a poor body and a very pleasant and harmonious taste.
• Recommendations: it will ideally accompany dishes made of tuna or red meat such as a good Brasato Piemontese without forgetting the hard and well-ripened cheeses. Finally for a sweet deal, it will go very well with the typical hazelnut cake of Castagnole, provided that it is not too sweet and the wine Ruchè has aged well. Serve at a temperatur of 15 to 17°C.
