Grignolino is a wine made from the classic Piedmont grapes of the same name. These grapes have the unique characteristics of having a low pigment content on their skins, yet a considerable number of seeds in the individual grapes, which impart a savory tannic flavor. This wine has been described as particularly noble in the past and valued for its therapeutic properties.
Fits
Grignolino can be drunk in two different ways: as a fresh aperitif (12 °C), which also goes well with salads and grilled meat, or at room temperature as an ideal accompaniment to red meat and cheese, thanks to its velvety tannins in the taste.
