The inaugural vintage of Prosecco Rosé Millesimato - appealing, fresh and berry-scented.
Production
The vines are guyot-trained and grown in chalky soils on a 10 hectare, south-east facing vineyard plot. After harvesting in early September, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel for around 10 days at 17ºC. Produced predominantly from Glera, with some Pinot Noir added to give colour - the Pinot Noir is macerated overnight in the press. There is no malolactic fermentation. The wine spends a few months on lees before bottling.

Tasting notes
Gentle berry and citrus aromas. The palate has lightly honeyed, apple characters with a touch of redcurrant. Some appealing weight and texture balanced by crisp acidity, a persistent mousse and good length.
Food match
Pair with chicken, fish dishes and salads - but perfect with or without food!

Meet the producer
One of Verona’s historic houses, founded by Giacomo Montresor in 1892, with a reputation built on high quality, affordable Valpolicella and Amarone. In recent years the range has grown steadily with vineyards being developed in Friuli and northern Veneto, around Conegliano.
The winery was family-owned until 2018 when Montresor was acquired by Cevico, a co-operative group based in Emilia Romagna, with 2 highly regarded Veneto co-ops as co-investors. Since then a major investment programme has transformed the company – with modern production facilities and a new winemaking team rejuvenating quality across the board, while access to high quality grapes from the Veneto co-owners has enabled some excellent new wines to be developed.
