Sparkling Wines
Rosa Delicata Spumante
Sparkling Wines
Tasting Note:
Pink with violet reflections. Aromatic, fruitful and floral with elegant notes of wild berries. An incredible pink fizz made with Pinot Noir (Pinot Nero in Italy), Pinot Grigio (Pinot Gris) and Pinot Bianco (Pinot Blanc). Made in the same style as Prosecco, but with different varietals giving a true pink from skin contact rather than one coloured with red wine such as merlot.

Winemaking
The family invested in a purpose built winery just outside of Treviso in the early 70s. It is incredibility well thought out with both production and storage facilities. Equipment is unsurpassed with constant investment, most recently in horizontal rotary fermenters. They keep must in tanks at near zero degrees until they actually want to start production, this means that their sparkling wines are made all year round as required and the freshness and vivacity which is the hallmark of these wines is there all the time
