Tasting Notes:

Pelaverga has in general the same color as Nebbiolo: light in color. Aromas of white pepper are very typical for the grape variety; plus floral aromas of rose and lavender; finished with a hint of spice. The wine is very unique and interesting. On the palate: smooth tannins, lighter than his Nebbiolo; great acidity and overall very well balanced. Can be served slightly chilled, especially in the summertime.
