This red wine is made of minimum 85% the grape Freisa, with the permitted addition of local non-aromatic red grapes (15%).
The result is a ruby red wine which, with age, turns to garnet red. The scent is distinctive and delicate, while the taste is dry, often semi-sweet, attractively bitter and sometimes slightly bubbly (Vivace).
Depending on the type, the wine covers both snacks and main dishes, as well as desserts, in the case of the semi-sweet one.

Most tourists who have visited Valle d’Aosta (Aosta Valley), have probably never given the region’s name or wines a second thought. Here it’s about skiing on the dramatic slopes around Breuil-Cervinia, at the base of the gigantic mountain, Matterhorn. But the region offers exciting things to do in the après-ski department.
