Ghemme "Oltre il bosco"

It is not a coincidence that we chose the name "Oltre il Bosco", which translates "Beyond the Forest", for this traditional DOCG red wine from Alto Piemonte. It draws its inspiration from historical rivalry between the towns of Suno, where Brigatti is located, and Ghemme, where the grapes are grown. There is a dense woodland between the towns, and in fact, beyond the forest we can find the vineyard where these grapes are cultivated. This dry red wine is characterized by its ageworthy characteristics, owing to its very prominent tannins and high acidity; the aromas are of red fruits with hints of violet and spices, and the flavors are long lasting on the pallet. We recommend serving it at 68°F and opening the bottle an hour before serving.
