Franciacorta Rosé by Mirabella is a classic method rosé sparkling wine that embodies the excellence of Lombardy wine production. Born from a careful blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc grapes, this cuvée expresses a balance between freshness and structure, typical of the best Franciacortas. The grapes, coming from vineyards located in Franciacorta, are vinified separately according to the classic method. The Pinot Noir is subjected to a short maceration on the skins to extract the characteristic pink color. Subsequently, the musts ferment in steel at a controlled temperature. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle, according to the traditional method, with the addition of selected yeasts and sugar. The period of aging on the yeasts, essential for the development of the aromas and complexity of the wine, lasts at least 30 months.

Pale pink color with delicate reflections, reminiscent of the shades of a summer sunset, the perlage: Fine and persistent, it forms a rosary of bubbles that slowly rise to the surface, releasing a pleasant and delicate crackling. On the nose it presents itself with a broad and elegant bouquet, characterized by fruity notes of strawberry, raspberry and red currant, enriched by delicate floral nuances of rose and violet. Citrus hints of grapefruit and mandarin are also perceived, which give freshness and vivacity to the aromatic profile.
On the palate it is balanced and complex, with a good structure and a pleasant flavor. The red fruit is the protagonist, supported by a pleasant acidity that enhances its freshness. The fine and persistent bubble envelops the palate with a creamy and silky sensation, leaving a long and persistent finish, with mineral notes and a light citrus aftertaste.
