Le Ronde hails from the famed Piedmont region of Italy. Piedmont, in Italian, means at the foot of the mountain. It was originally inhabited by Celtic tribes, which were later absorbed by the Romans. When Hannibal destroyed the Celtic capital, Taurasia, the Romans rebuilt it in the same location giving its streets the grid pattern that that still characterize Turin today. A distinguished characteristic of Piedmont is that most of its wines are produced on family estates made up of relatively small parcels of land. Le Ronde is crafted from select small parcels in order to guarantee the best grapes are used for their skillfully crafted wines. Displays tropical fruit and floral notes with lively acidity and a light-bodied finish.
