The Fondatori Albana Secco Romagna DOCG from Merlotta presents a sober, recognizable profile. Pale straw in color with bright reflections, it opens on the nose with delicate notes of white flowers, green apple and a light almond nuance, suggesting finesse rather than power. On the palate it shows a balanced structure, with fresh acidity and well-integrated sapidity that make the sip smooth and of good persistence. The texture is restrained, pleasant for those seeking a dry white with moderate aromatic tones.

It pairs naturally with everyday dishes: raw seafood, light fish soups, poultry and fresh unripened cheeses, as well as vegetable preparations with herbs. Also suitable as an aperitif for those who prefer dry, clean profiles. Serve at around 10–12 °C; store in a cool place and consume within a few years to appreciate its original freshness.
