Paolo Poggio Rosa

A rosé from native black-berry grapes, with a few hours of skin contact.

Tasting notes

Brilliant colour recalling peach blossom pink. Intense and elegant on the nose, with strawberry and raspberry notes opening to a graceful floral. Striking on the palate, with measured structure, good balance, fresh acidity and good persistence.

Pairs well with

Excellent as an aperitif; also good with fatty cured meats such as pancetta and lardo, shellfish starters, river and lake fish first courses; in summer with white meat such as chicken salad and rabbit, and with paella.
