Pasqua 11 Minutes Rose TreVenezie IGT
Lucky to experience these two wines!
The Pasqua 11 Minutes Rose TreVenezie IGT was one of the better Italian rose wines I’ve had.
It is a blend of Corvina (50%) and Syrah (15%) along with an unexpected lift from Trebbiano di Lugana (35%) and Carmenere (10%).
This wine had the “tannic bite” I like in a rose wine, PLUS the romantic label and unique bottle shape (rendering it a fitting Saturday night wine). 11 minutes for skin contact, hence the name!
THEN there was the sparkling Passionesentimento Prosecco Treviso Spumante Brut, from the Glera grape.
Here the bottle is lit in such a romantic fashion (candle light) it may be difficult to see the gorgeous Pasqua label.
Yet the beauty of the label, and also the superior taste of the wine (LOTS of freshness) made it a real winner.
… And HERE is a video I found on the Internet that explains the name “11 Minutes,”
As an FYI I had them both with Greek food (fish) yet can match a lot of things as well!
