When Giulio Ferrari vinified his first bottles of spumante in Via Belentani in 1902, he dreamed of an Italian sparkling wine on a par with French wines. Today, over 120 years later, this dream has long since become a reality – and Ferrari Rosé is living proof of this. The Fratelli Lunelli have taken the founder's legacy to Alpine perfection. This elegant rosé is made from 60% Pinot Nero and 40% Chardonnay in the high altitudes of Trentino. The vineyards stretch across Val d'Adige, Val di Cembra and Valle dei Laghi, all with south-easterly to south-westerly exposures on the mountain slopes. Here, the grapes benefit from the perfect symbiosis between Alpine freshness and Mediterranean warmth. The Metodo Classico vinification strictly follows French models. After gentle pressing, the first fermentation takes place, followed by traditional bottle fermentation with the winery's own yeasts. The Spumante matures on the lees for at least 20 months – time, which gives the rosé its characteristic creaminess and complexity.

Brilliant old rose colour in the glass, fine and persistent perlage. The bouquet enchants with lively aromas of hawthorn, redcurrants and wild strawberries. Subtle yeast notes from the long yeast ageing round off the multi-layered aroma spectrum. Dry and elegant on the palate, with stimulating acidity and a silky texture. The finish is long and balanced, characterised by sweet almonds and a fine mineral note. Perfect as an aperitif or with light seafood dishes. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Ferrari Trento Metodo Classico Rosé Brut (made with 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay) shows a raspberry pink color with aromas of wild myrtle, cassis and sweet almond. There is a hint of bramble and shiny berry leaf that gives this sparkling wine a cool climate, mountainous character. The beading is fine and sharp." Wine Advocate
