Treviso, Verona, Veneto, ItalyProsecco rosé has made quite a splash at retail and at least for the hot summer days in BC, so I can see its appeal. This blend of glera and pinot nero was vinified separately in steel, with the nero taking on 16 hours of skin contact to produce the pinkish hue. This aromatic, fruity fizz is all about heady orchard blossoms, aromatic,s and confected red berries. As you might expect, it is off-dry at 12 g/L residual sugar, making it a perfect foil to spicy appetizers from olives and sushi to barbecue ribs.Tasted: 09 May 2022Tasted by: Prices:
