Description

The Freisa d’Asti is one of the wines that made the history of Monferrato. Since the beginning of the sixteenth century it was considered “a grape of first quality” that managed to get a price even double the “common grapes” … It already presented all the characteristics to become a symbolic wine of this territory, nobility that a research by the University of Turin confirmed with genetic analysis: a direct relationship between the Freisa and Nebbiolo vines. Age it in your cellars and if you like a roast lamb or a good seasoned Piedmontese cheese, you will enjoy a unique experience
