Sognatore Rosato 2021
But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.
Flavor Profile
The Barbanera family crafts some of our most popular Tuscan reds, so we’re thrilled to present you with their NEW gold-medal rosé.
In order to make this award winner, Sofia Barbanera selected the finest Sangiovese and Merlot from the family vineyards. She then air dried them for a few weeks in a special ventilated room, just as they do for their expensive appassimento-style wines.
The key difference? Sofia opted for a gentle pressing of the grapes, giving Sognatore a deep pink hue (instead of a traditional red color). Cool fermentation brings out the gorgeous pomegranate and red berry aromas, along with fresh plum and cherry flavors. In keeping with its appassimento origin, this is a wonderfully lush, juicy, ripe-fruited rosé.
Enjoy a chilled glass on its own. Or if you’re looking to pair it with a meal, this rosato matches nicely with fish dishes and light, crisp salads.
Say ciao to this lovely pink today.
