The Wine:
Brokenwood’s eighth make of the popular Rosato. The wine is named Rosato (Italian for Rosé) as it is a blend of the Sangiovese and Nebbiolo varieties. Stylistically it is also European, where the wine has fruit sweetness but a dry finish. The actual residual sugar is zero. We wanted to make a savoury wine that could withstand being chilled and have plenty of florals and texture on the palate. Enjoy!
The colour has a very appealing pale coral hue. The Sangiovese adds a floral element to its aroma, and this dominates with Turkish delight and almost rose water in the background. The palate has vibrant spice/ginger notes and a dry finish, with the Nebbiolo delivering a hint of savoury tannin. While technically a red wine, it has plenty of zesty acid. Perfect out of the ice bucket on a blue-sky day and exceptional served out of a Magnum!
