La Casetta INCANTO Terrazze Dell'imperiese Bianco IGT (2023) – Liguria
THE GRAPE
100% Pigato from nearly 30-year-old vines grown on the hills of Liguria. The grapes undergo a 36-hour skin maceration, followed by fermentation and aging in stainless steel for 5-6 months before bottling.
THE WINE
A fresh and immediate orange wine with a bright character. It evolves beautifully after a few months in the bottle, revealing its full personality. Simple yet expressive, it serves as a perfect introduction to Ligurian Pigato. Notes of ripe fruit, floral hints, and a slight bitter finish make it well-balanced and enjoyable.
THE FOOD PAIRING
Pairs wonderfully with seafood dishes, fresh pasta with pesto, grilled vegetables, and light cheeses. Serve at 10-12°C to enhance its freshness.
THE WINEMAKER
La Casetta di Ranzo is a family-run winery cultivating about 4 hectares of vineyards on traditional Ligurian terraces. Focused on indigenous varieties like Pigato, Vermentino, and Rossese, the winery embraces sustainable practices to preserve the region’s rich viticultural heritage.
