The roots of this Pinerolese DOC Rosato Brigit Rosè are deep in tradition

La Freise It is one of the oldest vines in Piedmont, and the lands between Pinerolo and the Turin plain hold its most remote memory: the first written document attesting to its existence dates back to 1517, in a Pancalieri customs register, where "fresearum" grapes were listed at double the price of other varieties. An unmistakable sign of the value already recognized at the time. DNA studies later revealed its direct relationship with Nebbiolo, placing it firmly among the noble subalpine grapes.

Il Pinerolo DOC, recognized in 1996, gave a name and protection to this border viticulture, made up of vines perched on the first Alpine foothills, where the cold nights and sandy soils yield light, fragrant wines. Vinifying Freisa rosé, starting with the grapes thinned out from the clusters, is a practice that combines the peasant wisdom of wasting nothing with the modern pursuit of freshness: the gesture that improves the red wine simultaneously gives rise to a rosé that recounts the same vineyard with a lighter voice.

Next to the glass, the Culetti Seed Crackers, which recall the notes of flowers and dried fruit of the wine, a bowl of Fermented Green Olives in Brine for the savory component and a few cubes of Organic sheep's cheese Primo Sale, whose lactic sweetness and aniseed note find a perfect companion in the rosé.
• DELICATE SEAFOOD APPETIZER: The sandy minerality of this rosé is made for fish. Prepare some toasted slices of Semi-wholemeal Country Bread and lay them on top Cetara Anchovy Fillets in Extra Virgin Olive Oil, with a drizzle of their olive oil and a few stems of glasswort adding a crisp, sea-salty touch. The refreshing sip cleanses the saltiness of the anchovies and invites you to the next bruschetta.
• WHITE MEATS WITH THYME AND LEMON: Brigit Rosè is at its best with white meats. Marinate a Free Range Chicken Breast with oil, zest and juice Organic Amalfi Coast Lemon and leaves of Organic dried thyme, cook it in a pan and serve it with Trumpet Zucchini sautéed: the citrus and herbaceous notes of the dish reflect the floral freshness of the wine, which accompanies the meat without ever overpowering it.
