A mid salmon in colour. Notes of strawberry, melon and stone fruit. Tastes quite fruit driven and New World for an Italian Rosato. 50% Sangiovese; 50% Prugnolo Gentile (a new grape varietal for me). Easy to drink. Made for the Bistro Lunch trade where a bottle will disappear quickly.

Spinetta’s 2019 Il Rosé di Casanova is stunning in the glass, wafting up with a seductive bouquet, mixing lime and ripe melon with crushed strawberries. It floods the palate with spicy red fruits, complemented by juicy citrus and brisk acids, which keep the expression wonderfully fresh. The finish is long, as an air of minerals and fresh florals hover above salty minerals which beg you to take another sip. (Eric Guido, Vinous, May 2020)

Love was in the air when the Casanova was poured, at least for the wine if not the drinker. A great Rose with much more to offer than the typical pink punch. Went well with a dinner heavy in summer vegetables and herbs.
