Pinerolese
Argal The Pinerolese Argal is
obtained from the blending of
the Barbera, Freisa and Neretto
grapes cultivated in the Commune
of Frossasco.
The accurate refining in wood
that accompanies the maturation
of this wine develops the aromas
of brushwood and of light spices.
This maturation also contributes
to the forest fruit flavours
associated with the type of
grapes and their territory of
origin.
