NV Col di Luna 'Flora' Rosato
Col di Luna produces sparkling wines at the foot of the Dolomites, with a family tradition
and preference for the Brut style. Flora rosato comes from the local grape variety called
Raboso, a trifecta of spice, brambly fruit, and zingy acidity! Patio-Porch sipping, low abv spritzers, yes it's dry- like really dry.
Raboso is a hearty grape vine, perhaps best suited for rose'- it's high acid and tough tannin usually make it blending partner.
The wine is fermented with a slight maceration on the skins for 12 hours, and then continues to ferment in the tank. Once the wine settles, the producer transfers the juice to the bottle, where it finishes fermentation and creates the magic fizz. This is the
traditional 'col fondo' style, and you’ll notice a bit of ‘fondo’, or sediment, in the bottle.
