About this wine

Grapes

A non-vintage rosé sparkling wine composed of equal parts Nebbiolo and Pinot Nero.

Vinification

Produced as a Metodo Classico Extra Brut rosé.

Tasting profile

The latest published assessment describes an intense, luminous salmon-pink colour and a fine, persistent stream of bubbles. Red berries and hibiscus shape the restrained bouquet. The palate is more expressive, combining elegant mousse with freshness, tension and a long, gently saline finish.

Other published assessments reveal additional facets of the non-vintage cuvée: rose, pomegranate, Alpine herbs, strawberry, blood orange and star anise; blackberry, white pepper, mentholated herbs and stony salinity; and, in another tasting, orange zest, acacia honey and a light nutty note. Bright acidity, light to firm powdery tannins and a lively, fine mousse give the wine structure and energy.

Serving and pairing

Its acidity and saline profile suit rich, fatty or fried foods.

Vintage notes

This is a non-vintage wine. The 2025 assessment emphasized salmon-pink colour, fine persistent perlage, red berries, hibiscus, elegant mousse and a delicately saline finish. Reviews published in 2024 variously highlighted floral and red-fruit aromas, savoury and herbal tones, bright acidity, fine bubbles and a salty finish.
