POSTUMIO: the name cames from ancient Roman culture and its society. Postumia was a road that Consul Spurio Postumio Albino built in 148 A.D. and which nowadays still links a few towns of northern Italy: Aquileia, Verona, Cremona, Piacenza, Casteggio, Tortona and Genova.

Tasting Notes
Intense pink colour with persistent and delicate perlage. The perfume reminds us of redcurrants, with dried fruit and bitter almond nuances. Strong flavours but also delicate and harmonious.

Food Matching
Ideal as an aperitif. Perfect with first course dishes and grilled fish. Also a good combination with shellfish and “fish carpaccio”.
Serving temperature: 8-10°C.

Winemaking Notes
Traditional method. Fermentation: minimum in bottle for 18 months.
