Straw yellow with golden hues. Aromatic herbs, flowers, citrus and mineral notes. Fresh, slightly savory, smooth.

Pulin in Ligurian dialect means "last born," and is a project desired by the producer to rediscover and enhance the Granaccia grape variety, akin to Grenache from the Lower Rhone. It is grown along with Sirah and Barbera close to the Mediterranean scrub, on lean, stony soils rich in clay in the Arroscia valley.

Pulin in dialetto ligure vuol dire "ultimo nato", è un progetto voluto dal produttore per riscoprire e valorizzare il vitigno Granaccia, affine alla Grenache del Basso Rodano. Viene coltivato insieme al Sirah e Barbera a ridosso della macchia mediterranea, su terreni magri e sassosi ricchi di argilla nella valle Arroscia.

Acerbina, another way of calling Lumassina, takes its name from the fact that the wine has a marked and typical acidity.  It is documented in Liguria as early as the 1300s, but it was not until the late 1800s that it was accurately described in the "Ampelographic Bulletin." It grows almost exclusively in Liguria, the cluster is medium to large pyramid-shaped with medium to small round berries with a beautiful green color, ripens late.
