This property has been producing wine since 1900, when Pierre Tintero moved from France to Piedmont to find work, and ended up finding love instead. He married the widowed Rosina Corsina and the two revived her family vineyards and began producing wine. Their son later took the reigns and shifted their main focus to Moscato production, but they still grow local red varietals like Barbera and Nebbiolo, and produce an excellent refreshing rosé from Barbera with a touch of Arneis and Moscato.
Pairing: Light appetizers, Date night!
Grapes: 85% Barbera, 12% Arneis, 3% Moscato
Elvio Tintero Description
I don’t know how he does it, but hats off to Marco Tintero for year in and year out providing us with the freshest, most festive rosé I’ve ever seen (from quite serious terroir in the hills of Piemonte, no less). With a faint touch of fizz (not bubbles, just spritz to keep that lively, straight-out-of-the-tank vibe), explosive fruit, a screw cap, and priced to entice, it’s the perfect summer’s pleasure.
