Piemonte Brachetto Spumante D.O.C.

The red sweet sparkling wine born in 2000.
The roses scent and the lively foam call to the mind red fruits, desserts and cocktails as from a romantic landscape picture, very appreciated  from women for its red ruby, brilliant and charming colour.
Thanks to its fresh, bubbling and velvety tasting warm the hearts and the friendship meetings.
