What to Expect

Brachetto is most famously used to produce a strawberry scented slight sparkling wine from Italy's Piedmonte region: Brachetto d'Aqui. Low in alcohol and very fruity, it is an easy wine to like, though Brachetto is sometimes used in the production of still wines where one typically finds dark flavors that recall cherry and blackberry with subtle earthy and spicy undertones.

Winemakers Notes

The color of this wine is a deep, deep garnet red. It is sweet and frizzante (mildly sparkling) with la hint of tartness. The wines red bold fruit explodes with flavor: raspberry, grapes, sweet and sour cherries, and a hint of strawberry which is a signature of Brachetto D'Acqui sparkling wines. It has a sweet heavy body for a sparkling wine, which combined with the tartness and mild sparkle, as well as very low alcohol, make it a great aperitif or dessert wine that won't leave you too buzzed to enjoy the evening.
