Ca' Furlan - Cuvee Mariana Rose NV (750ml)

Ca Furlan Prosecco Rose

Sweet and spritely aromas of lemon peel, watermelon rind, with verbena, crushed sweet tarts and floral perfume. On the palate, this is dusty and chalky with well-woven sugar. White peaches, raspberries and lemon tones mix with sea salt and floral perfume. Medium sweetness is balanced well.

Ballet slipper pink in color. It smells like all the red berries and the aroma of walking into a cheese shop. It’s earthy and heady, and there's a nice mineral note running through the palate to balance everything out.

 

Variety

85% Glera, 15% Pinot Noir. 

 

Pairing

 

 Light meals, such as salads, pasta dishes, and seafood. The light body and acidity of the wine help to cut through the richness of these dishes.

 

History

Veneto-based wine industry veteran Alessandro Furlan made wine at his family’s vineyard in Friuli, “Franco Furlan,” for years before deciding to start his own label with longtime friend and owner of Regal Wine Imports, Charlie Trivinia. Alessandro’s grandfather started the family tradition of working in the wine business when he worked in retail during WWII. His son, Alessandro’s father, started the “Franco Furlan” wine label in the late 1960s.

Alessandro decided to go beyond the family business to chart his own path, and while working as a wine consultant and educator, he saw an opportunity to create his own wine brand. Ca’ Furlan references Alessandro’s roots in the historic regions of Friuli Venezia Giulia and Veneto, both places Alessandro calls home.

 

Sourced from some of the best vineyards in the Prosecco DOC, Alessandro works with local partners to carefully select and blend the wines to maintain a consistent style with fresh flavors for the Ca’ Furlan line of wines: the Prosecco, Prosecco Rosé and sparkling Moscato. The wines are carefully blended and bottled at a leading Veneto producer’s facility.

A GREAT VALUE sparkling pinot noir blend from the makers of Ca’ Furlan Prosecco! Aromas of fresh cherry, strawberry and rose petal. Round and creamy on the palate, with crisp refreshing bubbles and a long, balanced finish.
