Prosecco Rosé Extra Dry Fiol

Prosecco Rosé Extra Dry from the Treviso winery Fiol is the latest version of the famous sparkling wine from Veneto. It is a rosé made from a base of Glera, the historical grape variety of the area, to which is added a small balance of Pinot Noir. It is a label born recently, on the wave of strong demand in foreign markets for rosé wines. It is a bottle with an international face, offering a modern interpretation of Prosecco that is far removed from the tradition of the territory. The dosage of sugar and the soft, enveloping fruit make the sip immediate and satisfying.

Rosé Extra Dry is a Prosecco produced by a new and dynamic reality. The Fiol winery was created by three friends in 2011 to ride the success of the world's best-selling Italian sparkling wine. The Glera and Pinot Noir grapes come from vineyards cultivated in the vast area of the Triveneto Prosecco appellation. After harvesting, the grapes are softly pressed, with brief contact on the skins for the Pinot Noir. The musts are vinified using the white wine method, with fermentation in temperature-controlled steel tanks. After a short ageing period, the base wines are blended and transferred to autoclaves for frothing and re-fermentation using the Martinotti or Charmat Method, lasting a total of a couple of months before bottling.

Prosecco Rosé Extra Dry from the young Veneto winery Fiol is a fragrant, fruity expression that gives a new face to the most classic and traditional sparkling wine of the Marca Trevigiana. Its sugary dosage and the presence of Pinot Noir make it ideal to enjoy as an aperitif with a platter of particularly tasty local cured meats or with seafood or vegetable hors d'oeuvres. In the glass, it has a soft and delicate pink colour, with a perlage of good fineness and persistence. The olfactory profile expresses floral scents, aromas of citrus peel, pear, white peach, small red berries, currant, raspberry, wild strawberry. The palate is soft and creamy, with a pleasantly fruity mouthfeel and a finish on savoury and refreshing notes.
