I Tigli is a wine made from the indigenous piedmontese varieties Bussanello and Timorasso. The grapes are exposed to a skin-contact maceration for about ten days, it is not quite an orange wine but in that direction, and Daniele does not filter, so it is a bit cloudy with the wine retaining both great acidity and texture.This zesty skin-contact white has aromas of citrus fruits such as lemon verbena, fresh red apples and ginger.
