Pecchenino

Langhe Riesling

Tasting Notes

In the glass the wine is limpid, of an intense yellow color with greenish reflections; on the nose there are fruity hints reminiscent of pear and peach and floral scents such as acacia flowers and hawthorn. After half a year there are more mineral notes, in some cases accentuated by the typical scent of hydrocarbons, which characterises the wine. In the mouth it is soft, balanced and in the finish there is a good acidity that gives length and persistence to the palate.

Food Pairing

You'll find that the Langhe Riesling pairs well with raw or cured meats that are not too seasoned, hot and cold starters, first courses that are also very savory and white meat dishes. After a few years in the bottle it becomes a perfect wine to pair with cheeses, even aged ones.
