Pigato RLP DOC is the prince of Ligurian wines and the one that most represents the typicality of Liguria: its origins are uncertain but the most recent studies identify it as a clone of Vermentino which in Liguria has differentiated itself from the original vine , finding ideal conditions in the innermost areas of the Ligurian Riviera di Ponente.
The color of the Pigato is a light straw yellow with greenish reflections. The scent is intriguing and fine, with white flowers and hints of minerals and Mediterranean scrub. In the mouth it is fresh and savory, full and with a light almond finish typical of the variety.
Because this wine has uncertain origins, but it knows where it wants to go.
In short, the Pigato is really a beautiful story: it is said that it is the "copy" of Vermentino that has been able to adapt to the innermost areas of the Ligurian Riviera di Ponente and today it is cultivated and recognized exclusively in the province of Imperia and Savona.
