Cantina Trevigiana Prosecco DOC Rosé: The New Benchmark in Italian Sparkling Wines
Cantina Trevigiana Prosecco DOC Rosé Brut: The New Summer Star Blending Tradition, Freshness, and Bold Fruitiness
While classic white Prosecco has long dominated the sparkling wine scene, an elegant revolution is underway: the Prosecco DOC Rosé. Officially launched in 2020, this new category redefines how we enjoy Prosecco by offering a more fruity, refined sparkling wine with a unique aromatic profile. Among the best ambassadors of this evolution is Cantina Trevigiana’s Prosecco Rosé Brut, a perfect blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern flair.
A Perfect Marriage of Grapes and Time-Honored Methods
Prosecco DOC Rosé is crafted from a minimum of 85% Glera—the iconic grape of the Veneto region—blended with 10-15% Pinot Noir vinified as a red wine. This combination creates a luminous pink robe and a vibrant nose featuring white flowers, strawberry, cherry, raspberry, citrus notes, and occasionally a hint of blonde honey, as noted by journalist Olivier De Maisonneuve.

The wine undergoes a meticulous production process, including a minimum 60-day second fermentation in sealed tanks (extended Charmat method). This ensures fine, persistent bubbles and greater aromatic complexity compared to classic white Prosecco.
A Captivating Aromatic Profile That Appeals to All Palates
Cantina Trevigiana’s Prosecco Rosé enjoys unanimous praise for its balance of freshness and intense fruitiness. Yves Mailloux from the Club des Dégustateurs de grands vins describes it as delicate, with clear notes of strawberry, raspberry, and citrus zest—perfect as an aperitif or paired with seafood.

This wine’s versatility shines in creative pairings as well. On 98.5 FM’s “Le Québec maintenant”, sommelier and wine columnist Jessica Harnois featured it as her “groovy wine of the week,” pairing it with smoked Gouda for a bold and delicious contrast of flavors. (reference 98,5FM)
With its 11% alcohol content and vintage designation, this wine appeals to both casual drinkers and connoisseurs looking for a fresh yet flavorful sparkling option.
