Ortrugo dei Colli Piacentini Vicobarone: a refined and delicate organoleptic balance.

The Ortrugo dei Colli Piacentini DOC from Cantina Vicobarone is a wine of great appeal. Ortrugo, whose name derives from the Piacenza term for "the other grape," originated as a second-choice wine, the grapes of which were used together with others, and never alone. In recent years, Ortrugo has been increasingly vinified on its own, exponentially increasing its quality. With a pale yellow color and a slightly aromatic flavor, this wine is born from the soft pressing of the grapes and the fermentation of the must at a controlled temperature. This sparkling Ortrugo is perfect for your aperitifs, and pairs perfectly with appetizers based on cold cuts or shellfish. It is also excellent with white pasta dishes and white meat main courses. To be served chilled, at a temperature of 6-8 degrees. The Vicobarone winery produces its wines on the hills of the Val Tidone, historically dedicated to vine cultivation, on the border with Lombardy.
