D.O.C. Wine from Cervia
It is a sandy, salty soil, located near the sea, which contributes to the mildness of the weather. The wine production process is combined with the preservation of the ancient heritage of the so-called forest wines, typical from the southern part of the Po-Delta area and its population, where Cervia belongs, with its saltpans, culture and landscapes.
The grapes grown in the sandy "Bassona" land are turned into wine at the CAB ("Le Ghiaine")
Delicious as an appetizer, best served with starters, fish dishes and delicate pasta courses. Serve cool 8-10°C.
