Tenuta Sant'Antonio
Scaia Rosato Veneto Rondinella
Veneto, Italy
I’m loving the aromatics on this rosato from Veneto, Italy! 🇮🇹
@lulu_lara_g I can see (and taste) why you enjoyed it so much and agree there is a lot to unpack here! 🤔🧐
It’s comprised of 100% Rondinella grapes, native to Italy. This variety is a common blending partner in the red wines of Valpolicella and Bardolina. 🍇 Here it’s holding its own at center stage with notable florals on the nose, including elderflower, rose, and chamomile, alongside fruit notes of starfruit, cantaloup, raspberry, grapefruit pith, fresh herbal notes of chervil and fennel, and wet stone. 🌹
On the palate, it’s dry, has medium acidity, medium alcohol, and medium intensity in flavors. Flavors are largely consistent with the nose, but I’m also tasting Smarties candies -- both sweet and tart/tangy at the same time. It brings me back.
Saluti, amici!

Light pink in color, light nose as well. Taste of grapefruit, a touch sweet and a touch tart, not dry, low to moderate acidity. Ok but not enough body for me and not dry enough.
