Nose
Agenerous, multi-layered bouquet offers fragrant fresh-picked wild red berryfruit and a subtle florality, enlivened by crisp impressions of raspberry and cherry.
Palate
The palate show sanicely understated crispness, with flavours that are smooth and pleasurable yet at the same time on the austere side, as befits its underlying red-wine identity.
We believe that in this rosé version, Manzoni Rosso has successfully found a youthful and up-to-date expression.

Winemaking
Not only are we the only producer whose wine portfolio vaunts all four varieties of Incrocio Manzoni, but we wanted to take another important step and experiment with new directions for these grapes.
The fruit of that research is this rosé version of the 2.15 variety, commonly known as Manzoni Rosso.
We regard research and constant evolution in viticulture and winemaking procedures of fundamental importance, and we are convinced that this rosé version of Manzoni Rosso embodies a more youthful and modern expression of that classic grape.
In offering this innovative and trend-setting wine, we are combining our commitment to preserving our native grapes with our desire to answer consumer demands.
After the clusters are de-stemmed and pressed and the wine fermented, it macerates on the skins 8-10 days; the wine then undergoes spontaneous malolactic fermentation, is filtered, and then begins its maturation.
Appearance
The rosé appears a lovely, delicate salmon pink .
Food Pairing
We recommend enjoying it slightly chilled, at 8-10°C. It is the perfect partner to aperitifs and delicate dishes, fish and lighter meats, and even with young, fresh cheeses.
