Luccheti Spumante Rose
Lucchetti (Loo-ket-ee)
Key Points:
Small producer from Le Marche (La Mar-kay) specializing in the grape, Lacrima di Morra d’Alba, which is aromatically profound (wonderfully floral).
Dry, not Sweet: The wine you have is completely dry. Wines that have floral aromas and vibrant fruit are often (wrongly) thought of as sweet, which makes sense considering that, in nature, fruit is sweet. It’s a common trick that wine, which when fermented to dryness has no sugar left, plays on the mind.
TASTING NOTES
Bright and vibrant, with aromatic white peach, strawberry and floral notes. Full, rich mouth feel with clean and crisp acidity on the finish. Dry.
