Ai Fiori meaning ‘amongst the flowers’ in Italian is our way of describing the personality of our wine. Red grapes, in this case Nebbiolo, Pinot Noir and Brachetto, are left in contact with the skins for a short period before fermentation in barrel with wild yeast. We add Savagnin just before bottling to give our Rosato further intrigue, depth and freshness.
The breezy aromas of flowers on a summer day are accompanied by the rich depth of pomegranate and wild strawberry with hints of spice. It finishes dry with a lime and citrus leaf freshness. Ai Fiori is perfect for relaxation, conversation, antipasti or all three combined.

Good Rose from the ever dependable and innovative producer Soumah. Interesting blend of Nebbiolo, Pinot Noir, Brachetto and Savagnin to provide notes of strawberry, peach, stone, lime and nectarine. Not complex but very refreshing with high acidity and a lingering finish.
