One of the more unique wines in our portfolio, Gianni Carparelli’s rosato is made—like all I Pástini wines—from a variety native to Puglia, in southern Italy. In this case it’s the red grape Susumaniello, which is as fun to say as this wine is to drink. It’s bright and tart, with raspberry and peach notes and a distinct mineral streak. The effect is like drinking a great pilsner—brisk and refreshing, with a subtle fruitiness and just a touch of palate-cleansing bitterness.
