Roses and ‘The Wine of Love’
Ah yes, a rose is on the bottle, and roses are captured in the Petalo Il Vino dell Amore (“The wine of Love”) Moscato Spumante. This wine, from the making to the bottling, is designed to celebrate romance.
Roses in the wine
Petalo [pronounced PET-a-low] is made with Moscato grapes grown in the Euganean Hills, part of an Italian wine region. The Euganean Hills are also a noted for the wild roses that grow in the area.
Every spring the bees introduce the roses to the grapes, in a subtle manner only bees can. The result to the ensuing wine is delicate hints of rose to the nose and to the palate.
