Mirabella Franciacorta Rosé NV Review
Franciacorta is a Johnny-come-lately wine region in the long history of Italian wine. It was in the 1950s that the potential for the area was realized. Sure, there was wine being made here but the new focus was sparkling. Since then the region has grown to be one of the most focused and age-worthy bubbly on the boot. Mirabella came onto the scene here in the mid-'80s and was already expanding by the mid-'90s. They are now one of the premier labels on our market representing the Franciacorta wine zone. This rosé has a buttery nose with notes of confection and grapefruit. The bubbles are delightful, almost dancing in the glass. The fruit on the palate has a nice medium weight allowing the bubbles to be as free as they want.
