Grapes: 100% Freisa

An offspring of Nebbiolo, Freisa was historically used to augment the already noble structure of Nebbiolo wines thanks to the former’s thick skin. The grape variety’s name comes from the Latin fresia, meaning strawberry, and one sip makes this association clear.

Subtle yet aromatic, the wine is dominated by bright red fruit—most notably strawberry—and underlying notes of forest floor, fresh mushroom, violet, and geranium. On the palate, a noteworthy floral character gives way to perfectly ripened strawberry mitigated by stony minerality, reliable acidity, and hints of white pepper. Perfect for charcuterie and medium-aged cheeses, and thanks to its taut red fruit, somewhat spiced profile, and fine tannins, this wine also pairs brilliantly with mild Indian cuisine, curry dishes, barbequed meats, and burgers.
