Mezzacorona Rotari Blossom Rosé Trentodoc 2016 Review

Mezzacorona and Rotari have been cultivating their vineyards in the mountainous region of Trentino since the early 20th century. This is mountain fruit. Where the sun is more plentiful and the air is rare. The mountains provide great conditions for grapes to retain acidity while not sacrificing ripeness. All this makes for great base wine for sparkles. This Rotari Rosé shows how high-up fruit can give depth and balance. If you like the roundness and blousy nature of a good Blanc de Blanc this is right up your alley. It’s floral on the nose with a hint of Parmigiano Reggiano rind and tart fruit. On the palate, this wine has great natural acidity and balanced medium fruit. It’s a wine with personality.
