A pétillant naturel rosé from Calcarius made from Nero di Troia, one of Puglia's great indigenous red varieties — lively sparkling rosé from the limestone plateau of northern Puglia, with red cherry, wild herb, and a dry, refreshing finish.
Tasting Notes
Vivid rosé with fine natural bubbles. Nero di Troia brings its characteristic deep colour, red fruit, and firm structure even in rosé form — the pét-nat method keeps it light, fresh, and exuberant. Dry on the finish, with a mineral backbone from the calcareous soils. A distinctive Puglian rosé sparkler.
