Tasting notes
A new rose wine, the perfect ambassador for two "Made in Italy" icons. Dolce&Gabbana and Donnafugata
strengthen their partnership with the launch of Rosa. Bright pale pink in color, with an elegant bouquet
of jasmine, delicate fruity notes of wild strawberry, peach and bergamot. It has a very pleasant
fragrance, minerality and persistence. Perfect for aperitifs, raw fish, vegetarian dishes and delicate meats.
Description
Dolce&Gabbana, fascinated by this unmistakable color, strongly desired the production of a rose,
and the name Rosa was chosen to emphasize its unique personality. And just as Donnafugata has created
a new blend of two Sicilian grape varieties, so Dolce&Gabbana's creativity has taken up the challenge
of telling the story of this prestigious wine, overseeing its coordinated image: the immediately
recognizable graphics of the materials draw inspiration from the iconic Sicilian cart, which represents
the island's craftsmanship, culture and tradition the world over.
Food pairing
Perfect as a pre-dinner drink or paired with raw fish, vegetarian dishes, and delicate meats. Serve at 10-12C.
Harvest
The Nerello Mascalese grapes were harvested in the first ten days of September; Nocera was
harvested in the second half of August.
Vinification
Made from a blend of Nerello Mascalese & Nocera. The vineyards are located in Eastern Sicily,
on the north side of the Etna Contessa Entellina Estate. Manually harvested into crates with
selection of only the best bunches per plant. Cold maceration in press for 6-12 hours at 10C (50F)
followed by fermentation in stainless steel, at a controlled temperature. Aged in tanks for
two months and another three months in bottle before release.
