The 2021 'Rouge de Lissart' from Le Marie captures the essence of Piedmont's diverse viticulture, combining a unique blend of both renowned and rare local grapes. This Rosso Pinerolese is a reflection of the region's rich winemaking heritage and is crafted with organic farming methods that highlight the natural characteristics of each varietal.

Product Details:

Sensory Description:

The 'Rouge de Lissart' exhibits a vibrant ruby color and unfolds with floral notes of rose and violet amidst a backdrop of rich forest fruits. On the palate, it delivers an elegant and complex profile of velvety berry tones, enhanced by a unique softness that deepens with age. The wine’s structure is supported by soft tannins, culminating in a delicate yet pronounced finish.

Winemaker’s Background:

Le Marie is a family-run winery led by Valerio, with the support of his wife Luigina and children Simona and Daniele. Established in Assarti, a hamlet of Barge at the foot of the iconic Monviso and Monte Bracco, the winery is dedicated to producing wines that reflect their passion for tradition and respect for the environment. Their vineyards, benefiting from a mild microclimate and schistose soil rich in mineral salts, are known for yielding wines with distinctive aromas and flavors that have been appreciated since medieval times.

Serving Suggestions:

The 'Rouge de Lissart' is ideally served at 16°C and pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes. It complements antipasti and traditional Piedmontese pasta dishes, while its mature expression can beautifully enhance richer, meat-based courses. This wine also pairs delightfully with hearty stews and a well-curated charcuterie board, making it a versatile choice for any dining occasion.

With its limited production and meticulous attention to detail, the 2021 Le Marie 'Rouge de Lissart' Rosso Pinerolese stands as a tribute to the historical richness and winemaking excellence of Piedmont.
