This is another classic sparkling wine happily enjoyed in households and at restaurants (before COVID-19) across Italy. The Lunelli family has created an accessible and cheerful wine for the best of times (that we can’t wait to get back to). The Ferrari NV Trento Metodo Classico Ros Brut shows a bright raspberry pink color with faint copper highlights. Wild cherry, peach and cassis characterize the bouquet and cede to light touches of toasted almond and baked bread. To the palate, this sparkler shows a lean, steely approach that is terrific for any festive occasion.

WINEMAKER’S NOTES:

Ferrari Brut Rose is salmon pink in color. The bouquet is distinct and very refined, with the fresh fragrance of hawthorne flowers, red currants and wild strawberries. The taste is Dry, clean and elegant, with a delicate finish of sweet almonds.

Perfect served as an aperitif or with lighter dishes, especially seafood.
