Home Sparkling Wines Wines Lunetta, Prosecco Rosé Extra Dry (20cl)

Cavit

Fresh berry aromas and a fine mousse, with redcurrant and citrus notes, balanced by bright acidity.

Producer Information

Cavit is a leading co-operative in the mountainous Trentino region of northeast Italy. The winery began as a consortium of associated grape growers in 1950, with a dedicated winery at Ravina di Trento built in 1964.

Today It unites 11 separate cellars and their combined 4,500 grape growers across 7,000 hectares of vineyard, to produce an impressively broad portfolio from an intriguing palette of indigenous and international grape varieties.

In 1993 Cantina Altemasi was established, also at Ravina, not far from the region`s capital of Trento - for the production and maturation of Classic Trentodoc and Charmat Method sparkling wines.

Wine Making

The Glera grape variety pre-dates Roman times. The grapes for Lunetta are sourced from the hills above Treviso, a traditional growing area for Prosecco. Hillsides with cool, loose soils are favourable. The grapes are harvested by hand in the second half of September. The second fermentation takes place by the Charmat method.

Tasting Note

The colour is an appealing pink with cherry-coloured hints. Fresh berry aromas and a fine mousse lead to redcurrant and citrus notes on the palate, balanced by bright acidity and a clean, dry finish.

Food Matching

Just drink for pleasure.
