Erbavoglio Colline Novaresi Bianco DOC
Made from Erbaluce, a native local grape, fermentation takes place at a very low-temperature fermentation, which protects the integrity of the grapes and leaves us with a fragrant, fresh, easy-drinking wine with excellent acidity, minerality and persistence. A great aperitif or partner for light dinners.
