Why We Love It...
The Magnabosco family is prized for making some of the best Soave Classico in the world, but they’ve been making a fair bit of Italian “spumante” wines that simply defy any cost for quality computations or algorithms. The rolling hills of Veneto are their domain, and you’ll be hard pressed to find a nicer, funnier, or more gracious family in all of Italy (and that’s saying something)!
This is 100% corvina – from a 12 hectare, dry-farmed, organic plot in the Magnabosco family’s holdings in Veneto that sits on nutrient poor, stress-inducing, volcanic soils at an elevation of some 450 meters above sea level. The corvina grape is rarely seen as a rosé, especially a bubbly one, and you are far more likely to encounter it as the base of a heady Amarone, or other Valpolicella red. I’m not complaining, though, this is delightful! Soft and delicate, with a deep core of fruit reserves, bursting with aromas of cherries and strawberries that follow onto the palate, then additional accents of graphite, fresh cream, shaved almonds, candied grapefruits, and a kiss of raspberry and honey sweetness. The fizz is just rambunctious enough to distribute the flavors across the entire palate, and the finish is carried by a bright and linear acidity that cleanses between sips. It is just so much fun to drink – and simply an exceptional value for the Under $15 category! The Magnabosco family amazes yet again, now we just need to be back in Veneto with the Magnabosco family to make it all complete!
