Alasia Piemonte Cortese

Araldica is Piemonte's largest and most progressive co-operative yet retains a small, family run company feel, thanks to the inspired guidance of winemaker/manager Claudio Manera (whose father Livio was the co-op's first winemaker in the fifties) and his wife Lella, also a winemaker and in charge of Quality Control. 80% of production is bottled (an extraordinarily high percentage for a large co-operative) at the company's headquarters in the Monferrato hills, home of the old cellars and a new winery, operating since September 2000.

Fresh, primary fruit aromas of ripe grapefruit and lime; zingy, juicy and crisp with citrus flavours and mineral touches, it finishes with gently zesty acidity.

Perfect served as aperitif or with light summery seafood
