Since we’re between seasons where we’re exploring Italian wine and working our way down Italy’s boot, I thought we’d revisit the Rosato episode from way back in Season 1.
Rosato, Italian for rosé wine, it’s literally what’s in my glass right now. T
I hope you can find a glass of Italian rosé to help you wind down your summer while we take a lovely stroll back through our archives with “Rosato - Wading through the Italian Pink” - Perfect for warm summer evenings: they pair beautifully with al fresco dining, casual sipping, BBQ and friends.
Originally aired Jun 14, 2019
A quick dip into a couple of favorite rosé styles from Italy known as rosato takes us to the deep pink wines of Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo.
We also discuss Chiaretto (Bardolino) briefly, and check in on the rosé wine market for some figures and finds.
