Girò

The sweet and delicately fragrant wine has a velvety and harmonious flavor. Light ruby red in color, it is perfectly suited as a dessert wine. After the grapes are selected, vinification takes place with temperature-controlled maceration for 15 days and aging for 24 months in French oak barrels. Highly alcoholic, it pairs well with sapa desserts, chocolate cakes and red fruit tarts. Serving temperature 14°C.
