Grosjean - Torrette 2022 - Valle d'Aosta DOC - 75cl

                

1 BOTTLE X 75CL

12.5% vol.

In the heart of the Aosta Valley between 600 and 750 m above sea level, along a steep slope, with optimal exposure and brightness, are the vineyards that give this harmonious and full-bodied wine.

A perfect and interesting blend of native vines, mainly Petit Rouge (95%), together with Vien de Nus, Fumin and Cornalin.

It has a ruby red colour, complex on the nose and rich in floral notes, pleasantly fresh in the mouth, warm and soft, with moderate acidity.

Ideal for pairing with traditional Aosta Valley first courses and soups, perfect for an afternoon casse-croute.
