Langhe Freisa Brusaia   Beppe Marino

The Winery

• A long tradition unites Beppe Marino and his family to hillside vineyards and the calm attraction of the wine cellar. The roots have a firm hold in wine lands located between the Langhe and Monferrato districts of Piedmont, at Santo Stefano Belbo.

Evidence of these roots is found in the form of the large farmhouse, the vineyards and a small but technically remarkable winery: all passionately and enthusiastically run by Beppe Marino, his wife Rosalba and their son Maurizio, to create the real stars of the winery: the wines.

• The company is run at artisan level to offer customers wines produced exclusively from estate-owned grapes.

Colour:

• Dark ruby red, with purple tones.

Smell:

• Complex aroma, typically fruity, persistent and vinous with some hints of vegetal scents.

Taste:

• Dry, tannic and astringent.

Alcohol content:

• 12,5% vol.

Wine making:

• The vinification of Freisa is the classic red vinification.The grapes are crushed, de-stemmed and fermented in
  vats at a controlled temperature (28/30 ° C) for about 7-10 days, depending on the vintage. In this period about 2/3 pumpingover are made to promote fermentation and its processes. After fermentation, a transfer is made to eliminate the lees, then the wine is aged for about 3 months in stainless steel vats and subsequently put in bottles.

Food Matching:

• Once widely used because it matched very well with the old Piedmont cuisine. Because of its high
  acidity and tannins, it is great to be combined with high-fat meals as it leaves the palate very clean.
