ABOUT THIS BOTTLE
In 2005, Marco Cecchini established a negociant business, buying grapes from carefully selected small-scale local growers and vinifying them in his modern winery. Here, his family releases D'Orsaria wines from the winery at Orsaria, near Premariacco. Bright straw yellow in color with fragrant aromas of classic pear and apple layered with hints of pineapple and flowers. Dry and round on the palate, with a well-balanced and long finish.
