Product Notes

G.D. Vajra Pétracine Langhe Riesling is a refreshing and vibrant wine hailing from the Piedmont region of northwestern Italy. It is made from 100% Riesling grapes, which are grown on south-facing slopes of the vineyard at an elevation of around 400 meters above sea level. This wine has a pale straw-yellow color and a nose that is full of floral, citrus, and mineral aromas. On the palate, it is crisp and lively with flavors of lemon zest, green apple, and wet stone. The finish is long and refreshing, with a bright acidity that provides balance to the sweet fruit flavors. Overall, G.D. Vajra Pétracine Langhe Riesling is an excellent wine that is perfect for pairing with light, summery dishes such as seafood, salads, and mild cheeses.
