Charme Rosé Firriato
Charme Rosé is produced from Sicilian autochthonous black grape varieties, harvested before complete ripening to safeguard its aroma and acidity. The vinification in white with a brief contact with the skins and the sparkling process with fermentation in autoclave respectively give it the characteristic pink color and an extroverted and brilliant character.
