Our wines -> Brachetto d'Acqui D.O.C.G. |
 |
It derives from brachetto grapes cultivated on the
hills of San Nicolao and Acqui Terme characterized
by expositions that are able to developed so
particular colours and bouquets.
HARVEST
Depending on the maturity of the grapes harvesting takes
place between 1st and 10th of September.
WINE MAKING
The grapes are pressed and macerated with the berry skin
for three days with a temperature of 15 degrees for
obtaining a must that is immediately refrigerated and
maintained in a temperature of 0 degrees for preventing
the fermentation.
To obtain Brachetto you have to: take
the must to a temperature of 18 degrees and add selected
yeasts. After 20 days, when the must is about 4,5-5,5
alcohol degrees, stop the fermentation through the
refrigeration. Filter the resulting wine and put it in the
bottles.
ORGANOLEPTIC FEATUES
Colour: middle intensity ruby red.
Bouquet: aromatic bouquet typical of withered rose and
hints of moss.
Taste: sweet, soft and delicate.
HOW TO SERVE IT
Temperature: 6-8 degrees.
It should be served in Dessert wine glasses.
Food pairings: cakes and dry pastry, good for unusual
aperitifs
NOTES
Called by the critics: “wine for women” perhaps for its
low percentage of alcohol, or wanting to be poets,
because its rose bouquet could be the one of a beautiful
woman.
