Tasting Notes: The Fontanafredda Langhe Rosato Solerose is a blend of Barbera, Dolcetto and Nebbiolo made into a robust rosato from stalwart Barolo producer Fontanafredda. It opens with splendid notes of raspberry, blueberry and ripe strawberries. The profile is fresh, soft and savory. Perfect with grilled shrimp or hard cheeses.
Estate History: Among the splendid rolling hills of the Langhe, in the heart of Piedmont, stands the beautiful Fontanafredda estate, which once belonged to King Vittorio Emanuele II who n turn gave it to Rosa Vercellana, a commoner with whom he had fallen madly in love. An ancient love story, kept alive by the modern Fontanafredda team, with particular attention to that desire to renew and improve that which has always distinguished the company, now a point of reference in the Langa area. Here, indeed the passion for wine, for the land and for tradition finds its most concrete expression.
