Freisa d'Asti DOC SorìdiGiul

Freisa is one of the idiosyncratic grape varieties of Piedmont — closely related to Nebbiolo, but less well-known and precisely for that reason interesting. The SorìdiGiul from Tenuta Santa Caterina shows what this variety can do: lively freshness, a clear structure, and an unmistakable character that does not hide behind the international mainstream.

Wild raspberry and red forest berries dominate the nose, accompanied by a subtle herbal spice that is typical for Freisa from the Astigiano. On the palate, the relationship to Nebbiolo is evident: the tannins are present but fine-grained, the acidity fresh and invigorating. The finish is medium-long, slightly tart with a hint of pomegranate.

The wine pairs excellently with ravioli del plin — the Piedmontese classic — or with grilled eggplant with herbs. It also stands up well to braised game. Serving temperature: 16–17 °C.
