Ottavo Giorno Torre Fornello 2011 - 50cl

The Ottavo Giorno is a real gem that this fascinating cellar Piacenza decided to give all fans. A wine from overripe grapes that has its roots in the provocative territorial clay Piacenza.

A unique wine that the diocese of Piacenza - Bobbio has appointed 14 March 2014 as a Wine for Messa and that gives feelings beautiful.

A pearl of this winery that made the rediscovery and appreciation of local vines a philosophy of life...
