Sparkling
Brut Rosé Millesimato d'Antan
By La Scolca, Gavi, Piemonte, Italy
A rosé from the same long-aged cuvée line, coloured by Pinot Nero added at disgorgement.
Tasting notes
Pale pink, fine soft abundant foam, fine continuous bubbles. Slightly spicy, intense persistent nose with pastry and white chocolate, then exotic fruit, honey and spice. Full, firm, fresh palate, velvety, pleasantly acidic with almond; candied fruit on the finish.
Pairs well with
Aperitif and important lunches; also after lunch and for contemplation.
