Made from Bombino Nero grapes, a variety that tends to not ripen uniformly and is suited for making a rosato. The wine has an onion-skin color with pink reflections and aromas of violets and ripe fruit, more yellow than red. The mouthfeel has no lack of acidity that gives it freshness and makes it easy to drink.
This DOC wine is named after the famous octagonal castle commissioned by Frederick II of Swabia and that is depicted on the 1-euro cent coin.
