Bottega, Pink Gold, Prosecco, Veneto, Italy, 2019

All glitter and metallic finish, this premium rosé Prosecco (north of £20 a bottle) has some of the most bling packaging I've ever seen on a wine at this price. In the glass, however, it's surprisingly appealing with lots of character. The Glera and Pinot Noir components were harvested and vinified separately and blended before the second fermentation. Pale rose in colour, take a sniff and you'll get heady aromas of parma violet, rose, maraschino cherry and bakewell tart. A touch of sweetness on the palate, from 10-14g/L residual sugar, and lots of ripe, juicy strawberry and cherry fruit, fresh and floral.
