Freisa is Nebbiolo’s closest relative, a variety indigenous to Piedmont. The slightly wild and engaging cousin of Piedmont’s king grape, Freisa can boast the same assertive acidity and tannins but also offers a more accessible overall profile that shines in its youth yet ages beautifully. 499’s Freisa is seamless with juicy flavors, balanced, soft tannins and overall delicious drinkability.

Azienda Agricola 499 was born from the friendship between and complimentary skills of Gabriele Saffirio and Mario Andrion to create a new and ambitious artisanal grape growing and winemaking estate focused on the hyper-regional Piedmont varieties of Freisa and Moscato.
