Less full-bodied than a red wine Piemonte Rosato is an excellent accompaniment to starters, starters, seafood risotto and main courses of white meat. Pleasant with fish dishes, soups and fried foods, but also excellent with fresh or slightly aged cheeses. Nice for aperitifs and socialising moments, it should be served at a temperature of 8-10 °C.
