Silvarosa vino rosato
Grape-variety: 100% Nebbiolo
Vineyard: Autochthonous
Soil: Compact, mainly clay and limestone
Position: Facing south, south-west, west
Altitude: Between 240 and 270 m
Vine-training: Arched-cane Guyot
Vinification: The grapes were crushed and de-stemmed in the winery, and the must was left to macerate on the skins for 24-48 hours. Fermentation was then completed off the skins
Maturation: After drawing off and partial clarification, the wine was matured for 2 months in steel
Ageing: Prior to its release, the wine was aged after bottling for at least 2 months in bottles lying down in the dark and peace & quiet of the cellar
Tasting notes: An elegant pink colour leads into a nice, fruity nose clearly showing hints of withered roses. The taste is luscious and dry, with a long finish
Food pairings: A wine with a great personality which goes well with fish, vegetable and meat starters, first courses, and sautéed and barbecued white and red meats. Excellent as an aperitif, and for serving with simple snacks at any time of day
Storage: Best kept at a constant temperature in the dark and silence of an underground cellar
