The 2024 Braida Brachetto d'Acqui is a delightfully playful, lightly sparkling sweet red that serves as the aromatic benchmark for the region. Braida is credited with elevating this style to world-class status, focusing on pure fruit and "joy in a glass." The nose is a perfume of Bulgarian rose, wild strawberries, and raspberries, accented by hints of nutmeg and violet. On the palate, it is delicate and "suave," with a fine mousse that carries flavors of juicy red berries and forest fruits. It perfectly balances its natural sweetness with a refreshing, crisp acidity, finishing with a lingering aromatic trail.
