Rosariflesso di Borgoluce is a rosé sparkling wine made from 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Nero. The grapes come from the vineyards of Susegana, located between 70 and 200 meters in altitude on clay soil with presence of limestone and fine gravel, from vines aged between 7 and 15 years. Borgoluce consists of 1000 hectares of woods, pastures, vineyards, and cereal fields, precisely in Susegana, in the province of Treviso: an agricultural company that, in balance with the environment, takes care of this land, one of the most beautiful and flourishing in Valdobbiadene. The harvest is done by hand between late August and the first ten days of September; the grapes macerate on the skins, according to the lots, from a few hours up to 3 days. After the soft pressing, they ferment in steel, then the wine refines on the lees for 6 months, keeping the tanks at a temperature not exceeding 10°C. The sparkling process then takes place in autoclave following the Charmat method, with a residual sugar content of 3g/L.

ROSARIFLESSO BORGOLUCE: TASTING

Rosariflesso di Borgoluce has a delicate pink color and a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it smells of wild strawberry, raspberry, peach, and mint; on the palate, it is very fresh, savory, and elegant. A perfect way to start the evening, perhaps accompanied by a red mullet flan and cream of pecorino cheese.
