Product description
Introduction
Sorelle Bronca Rose Brut is a refined and delicate sparkling wine from the Veneto region of Italy. It is produced by sisters Antonella and Ersiliana Bronca, who established their estate in the mid-1980s. The winery is highly regarded for its commitment to organic viticulture and small-batch production, with vineyards located on steep hillsides in the prestigious Prosecco DOC and DOCG zones. Unlike many large-scale commercial sparkling wines from the area, Sorelle Bronca focuses on hand-harvesting and natural winemaking techniques to ensure purity and freshness.
Wine Description
This Rose Brut is known for its elegant light pink color and a perlage that is both fine and persistent.
Varietal Composition: A blend of 90% Glera (the traditional grape for Prosecco) and 10% Pinot Nero (Pinot Noir).
Aromatic Profile: The nose is delicate and expressive, offering a bouquet of floral and fruity notes. It typically features scents of fresh roses and wisteria combined with red currants, strawberries, and raspberries.
Palate and Body: On the palate, the wine is soft yet energetic. It develops vertically with a fragrant persistence and an acidulous backbone that keeps the fruit flavors bright. It is light-bodied and crisp, with a dry finish characteristic of the Brut style.
Winemaking: The grapes are picked early to maintain high natural acidity. The process involve a soft pressing of whole grapes and a primary fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The secondary fermentation follows the Martinotti (Charmat) method, often resting on the lees for at least two months to add complexity and texture.
ABV: 11%.
Sugar Content: Typically around 7 g/L to 13 g/L, maintaining a dry but approachable profile.
