Rosé di Morgante
Wine Description
After accumulating generations of grape-growing expertise, the Morgante family started bottling their own wine under the guidance of Riccardo Cotarella in the mid-1990s. Situated in the western reaches of Sicily, where Nero d’Avola reaches optimal ripeness levels, Morgante has crafted this beautiful 100% estate-grown Nero d'Avola wine.
Rose di Morgante is bright and fresh. Ideal as an aperitif, enhances raw whitefish, and any kind of Mediterranean salad.
