PONTE1948 – Prosecco Doc Rosé
A LONG LOVE STORY
From the romantic encounter between Glera and Pinot Nero
the dynasty, symbol of all lovers, is born.
Our scene opens in the beautiful Ponte di Piave,

from ancient flavors we arrive at a new union,
what hands and hands he will see beating forever.
And from the ideal bunches of these two vines
a couple of lovers is born under a lucky star,
whose romantic story will convince, with their bodies,
also the skepticism of the scholars.
It is a beautiful and long love story that began years ago in the Ponte house from the encounter between two noble grape varieties, Glera and Pinot Nero, to give life to a completely new variety, with surprising organoleptic properties. When the new wine came to light, it was immediately clear that it was a predestined one and that its name would soon echo around the world, but its debut in society had to wait for the extraordinary union to be made official.
“This marriage has to be done” everyone repeated, so much so that the ceremony was finally authorized and so, on the occasion of his fourteenth birthday, the precious identity could be revealed:
Adorned with an elegant and delicate antique pink coat with precious blush-tending reflections, it is fresh and pleasantly fruity, giving delicate citrus notes that are softly expressed in a symphony of peach and delicious red apple. Enveloping, sinuous, it is able to seduce at the first taste. He loves the delicate combinations of the Mediterranean tradition, sushi and sashimi.
