Rivera Rose Castel del Monte 750ml

Extremely light pink-ruby color; very pretty. Delightful aromas and flavors of white peach, orange and lavender. Then tangy but very good density and juiciness on the long and salty finish. The paler color with respect to Rivera’s other Rosato, called Rosé, is because the Pungirosa is macerated on the skins for 24 hours but at only 5 °C. 100% Bombino Nero.
