In Monferrato, Italy, Ercole, a wine crafted by a generations-old co-op of local growers in the region, showcases delightful flavors. The wine exhibits notes of peach pit, pear, and sweet nectarine accompanied by delicate floral undertones. Its palate is characterized by crushed pineapple and sweet citrus, all harmoniously balanced on a smooth, mineral-driven foundation.

This unique wine is primarily composed of 80% Cortese, the native grape of Piedmont commonly used in Gavi. To add a distinct twist, it is blended with Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. The fermentation process takes place in stainless steel, resulting in a refreshing and easy-drinking wine, perfectly suited for a Liter format. Ercole, which means “Hercules” in Italian, embodies the collaborative efforts of local growers, making it a remarkable addition to the Monferrato wine scene.
