Piemonte DOC Cortese "Riva Fredda"

0,00 €

WHITE WINE

Piemonte DOC Cortese “Riva Fredda” is an elegant and refreshing white wine that authentically expresses the winemaking tradition of Piedmont. Made exclusively from 100% Cortese grapes harvested during the second ten days of September, it is crafted through a careful vinification process designed to preserve the grape variety’s natural aromatic fragrance.

After destemming, the skins are immediately separated from the must through gentle pressing, preserving the wine’s aromatic purity and finesse. Fermentation takes place as a white wine at a controlled temperature of approximately 18°C (64°F) in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and lasts for 18–20 days, allowing the wine to develop delicate aromas and vibrant freshness. The wine is then aged exclusively in stainless steel, maintaining its lively character and youthful expression.

In the glass, it displays a bright straw-yellow color. The bouquet reveals fresh and delicate aromas of white flowers, green apple, and subtle citrus notes. On the palate, it is fresh, balanced, and pleasantly crisp, with an easy-drinking style that highlights its natural elegance.

A particularly versatile wine at the table, it is perfect as an aperitif and pairs beautifully with vegetable-based appetizers, whether served hot or cold. It is also an excellent match for pizza and light Mediterranean dishes.

For the best tasting experience, serve at 8–10°C (46–50°F) to fully appreciate its freshness and aromatic profile.
