Italy produces some of the world's most distinctive rosé wines, each shaped by its local grape varieties, climate, and winemaking traditions. Join us for an educational tasting featuring six Italian rosé wines from diverse regions across the country.
We'll explore Prosecco Rosé DOC, Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo, Rosato del Salento from Puglia, Isola dei Nuraghi Rosatofrom Sardinia, Rosato from Tuscany, and another regional expression that highlights the remarkable diversity of Italian rosé.
Learn how grape varieties such as Glera, Pinot Nero, Montepulciano, Negroamaro, Sangiovese, and native Sardinian grapes produce dramatically different styles of rosé. We'll discuss regional winemaking traditions, rosé production methods, and the influence of terroir while discovering why Italy has become one of the world's most exciting sources for rosé wines.
