Valdo Spumante “Paradise” Special Edition Rosé Brut – Country: Italy – Capacity: 0.75 Valdo The bottle certainly doesn’t go unnoticed. It is reminiscent in some ways of a famous Champagne Maison, but with more colour and decidedly Italian taste. The design of the bottle is entirely handmade by the New York designer Ceci Johnson, using the watercolour technique, then digitised by scanner and applied to the bottle. Inside, then, one discovers a unique sparkling wine, the result of a fortunate encounter between Veneto and Sicily. The starting grapes, sourced from low hillside vineyards, between 100 and 300 metres above sea level, are typical selected white varieties, Glera, to which is added a part of Sicilian Nerello Mascalese, used to give colour and character. Vinified in pink, the red grapes are simply pressed and the must is separated almost immediately from the skins, without even starting a first phase of maceration. The base wine thus obtained is then placed in autoclaves for the second fermentation, which lasts about 4 months. In the glass it reveals a delicate antique pink colour, thanks to the special processing of the grapes in the press. The nose is intensely fruity, with pleasant notes of fresh flowers and forest fruits. In the mouth it is warm, lively and at the same time pleasantly soft. Ideal as an aperitif, this unconventional sparkling wine is excellent with fish and shellfish menus and even with delicate meat dishes. Try it also with pizza.
