Les Cretes Valle d'Aosta Rosé 2023
Tradition has taught us that the vineyards dedicated to traditional grapes are those that express the greatest pleasantness. From this idea came our Rosé, a heady and delicate wine that represents the new interpretation of one of the most important terroirs of the Aosta Valley. The grapes are found in the vineyards of Sarre, the historical vocational area of the Torrette, with Southern exposure, in the vineyards of Aymavilles and Gressan.

Bouquet
