Mamete Prevostini "Monrose" Rosato, Alpi Retiche IGT, Lombardy, Italy 2023
Mamete Prevostini's wines are consistently some of the best coming out of Valtellina and their rose of Nebbiolo is no exception. Spring in a bottle. "Bright pink colour, reminiscent of onion skin. The nose expresses fresh red fruit with intense mineral nuances. In the mouth it is well balanced, slightly fruity with a pleasantly refreshing aftertaste in which fresh raspberries and wild roses emerge." - Mamete Provostini Varieties: 100% Nebbiolo Region: Alpi Retiche IGT, Lombardy, Italy Volume: 750ml Alcohol: 13.5% ABV Farming Practice: Sustainable Soil Type: sandy, of glacial morainic origin Sulfur: unknown Winemaking: After a gentle destemming the grapes, lightly pressed, are stored in stainless steel containers, where a cool maceration takes place in around 12 hours.
