The Rigoloccio has a deep soul for red wines but loves challenges. In 2017 the Rigoloccio decided to put himself to the test with white wines. producing a pure chardonnay vinified and aged in barrique. In the glass a wine of great texture, which combines aromatic richness with an unmistakable minerality. Its name is a tribute to the mistral wind, which blows from the northwest by mitigating the afternoon temperatures. #rigoloccio #whitewines #italianwine #travels#sommerlierlife #discoverwines #frenchbarriques
Aged in steel for 8 months, ages in bottle for 2 months. The aromatic and fresh taste renders it particularly adapted to match salamis and medium-seasoned cheeses as we as a wide range of complicated dishes.Crisp, dry and herbaceous. Exactly how the Italians wanted it to taste! #italianwines #italy #wine #lovelanguage #service #tasting #fyp #whitewine #pinotgrigio #travel #sommerlierchoice #winelovers❤️ #wineeducation
