Martini Sparkling Rosé
All of the sparkling rosé wines we’ve reviewed recently have been on the dry side. Brut, to be precise. But not every bubbly wine drinker is into the dry wines, so let’s check out one that’s off dry (i.e. slightly sweet).
The Martini Sparkling Rosé is an Italian sparkler made from a blend of brachetto, malvasia and moscato bianco from Northern Italy.
This wine has a pretty interesting bouquet, showing a blend of strawberry, rose and tropical fruit aromas. The brachetto appears to be the dominant grape in the blend, adding the strawberry characteristics. The palate is slightly sweet and brimming with ripe berry and peach flavors. I would have liked a touch more acidity to balance the sweetness, but I think many who prefer sweeter wines will enjoy this one.
For food pairings, go with rich, creamy cheeses. Or try it with fruits like peaches and apricots.
