DuchessaLia Fragolino Rosé 75cl
★★★★ 4.0 (1 review)Pop this and your glass fills with bright bubblegum-pink fizz that smells exactly like a bowl of fresh strawberries. It's sweet, it's soft, it's only 7%, so it goes down like a treat rather than a serious wine. This is your move for a girls' night, a lazy Sunday, dessert on the balcony, or any time you want something fun and pink in your hand without overthinking it. Chill it hard and it basically pours sunshine.
The nose is the whole show here: ripe strawberries, a little raspberry, a wash of red summer berries, like someone crushed a fruit basket into your glass. The bubbles are fine and gentle, not aggressive, so it feels light and frothy rather than sharp. On the palate it's properly sweet and fruity, easy and round, with that strawberry note carrying all the way through. Think fruity and playful, not dry or serious. Easy to drink, easy to love.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This comes from Duchessa Lia, a winery down in Santo Stefano Belbo, in Italy's Piedmont region, the same gorgeous hills famous for Moscato and Barolo. 'Fragolino' comes from 'fragola', the Italian word for strawberry, which is the whole point of the style: an Italian sparkler built around that big, ripe strawberry character. It's the bottle Italians reach for when they want something sweet, pink and easygoing rather than a stuffy fine wine.
