Riviera Ligure di Ponente DOC Pigato U Baccan 2021 Bruna

The Ligurian Riviera di Ponente Pigato U Baccan was born in vineyards located in the fabulous Arroscia Valley, between the provinces of Imperia and Savona, in the heart of western Liguria. U Baccan which means the chief in Ligurian dialect, thanks to its personality expresses the true essence of the Pigato grape.

It is produced exclusively with Pigato grapes, harvested only by hand during the month of September. After a maceration on the skins for 36 hours, the grapes ferment in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 20 ° C for 10 months. Subsequently the wine ages in the same containers for 12 months and for further 4 months in bottle.

It is characterized by an intense straw yellow color, with greenish reflections. The nose opens with an elegant aromatic bouquet, with aromas of sage and thyme, enriched with pleasant hints of peach and citrus and delicate nuances of honey. On the palate it is enveloping, pleasantly balsamic and with an excellent savory note. The wine has a good persistence.

Perfect to accompany fish and shellfish dishes, it is ideal in combination with raw fish and white meats.
