The wonderful Raboso and Lagrein red varieties are used make world class roses with enticing strawberry characters.

Vineyard information: 

Rabsos and Legrein are harvested by hand and the pressing takes place when the grapes are gathered from the various vineyards are transported to the winerywhere the work of vinification begins. The skins have only brief contact with the juice to give the wines a delicate rose colur but long enough to help with structure and weight. Only thefreerun juice from the heart of the berry is extracted and a a maximum of 70 litres of wine may be obtained from 100 kg. of grapes.

Food Pairing: 

A truly innovative sparkling wine its delightful by itself but an absolute dream with Prosciutto and delightful with shellfish.
