ArPePe - Sassella Vigna Regina

This truly royal wine, bearing the same name as the Cru vineyard where it originates, is precious like only a truly hand crafted work of art can be. It has a magnificent essential character that surprises the palate with its clarity and freshness, and thanks to the versatility of this mountain-grown Nebbiolo, unexpected food pairings can be achieved, even with fish such as antipasti, shellfish and salmon. To be served in large glasses at 15°C.
