Producing wine is a family art, and Luigi Barbanera, affectionately known as “Gigino,” passed down his passion to his children, who have cherished and continued his legacy. This wine is dedicated as a tribute to his tenacity — a gesture of affection that honors his memory.

In the glass, it shows a clear straw yellow colour with bright golden reflections. The nose reveals an elegant aromatic complexity with pronounced and pleasant notes of yellow peach, melon, and candied citrus peel, beautifully balanced by subtle hints of exotic fruit. The palate is broad and harmonious, fragrant, and closes with remarkable fullness and a rounded finish.

This versatile white is an excellent companion to a wide variety of dishes, ideal with appetizers and refined seafood such as lobster, langoustines, and grilled fish. It also pairs wonderfully with soft cheeses, especially bloomy-rind varieties.
