Lucevia

Lucevia joins two words: light, as revelation, and way, as a chosen path. It is made from Pallagrello Nero grapes and from one clear decision: to change point of view. A red grape interpreted the way of a white, a rosé made by stylistic choice, not by habit.

White-wine vinification, fermentation in steel and a white-wine approach lead the grape toward a purer, finer, brighter expression. Lucevia is the moment a familiar material takes a new direction and reveals an unexpected face.

When to drink it. Aperitivo on the terrace, as the sun sets behind the mountains and nobody wants to go inside yet.

In the glass and at the table

• Color: pale crystal pink, like a faded rose petal, bright and luminous
• Nose: fine and elegant, with fresh small red fruit (redcurrant, raspberry) and hints of pink grapefruit
• Palate: fresh and lively, with bright acidity that makes it very easy to drink and a pleasant savory finish
• Food pairing: aperitivo, light cured meats, pizza, pasta with fresh tomato, grilled fish
• Serving: 9-11 °C (48-52 °F). Best drunk young, though malolactic fermentation gives it a few extra months
