Current condition

Fresh, vibrant acidity with developing complexity

Savagnin from Trentino is a grape known for high acidity and aromatic intensity. With moderate alcohol and dry style, this wine develops layered complexity between 5-9 years post vintage, benefiting from bottle maturation to soften the youthful sharpness while gaining secondary and tertiary bouquet.

Food pairing

Pairs well with seafood dishes, light pasta with herbs, grilled white meats, aged cheeses, and dishes with a touch of spice.
