Tasca d'Almerita Nozze d'Oro 2015
“...to my wife with immense love”. A special wine. Count Giuseppe, for his golden wedding anniversary, decided to create a new white wine with equal parts of Inzolia and Varietà Tasca, this latter produced only in Regaleali. Thus a wine was born which everybody judges to be excellent. Dedicated to his wife Franca, Nozze d’Oro was so well-received that it was decided to continue the production in following years. White and of excellent structure. It is a cru of the company.
