RECOMMENDED WINES
We have asked Bodegas Piedemonte to recommend three wines, one for going around the house, for when we have engagement guests or we feel like opening a bottle simply because we feel like it, another for occasions, when a guest comes to us that we want to entertain, and the third, a different wine, one that has been made with special care and that we will not find in other wineries.
