Rive di Selva
Vino Spumante Rosato di Qualità Brut
Pure Pinot Noir from the Treviso hills. The name is that of Selva, where the family began.
At Selva del Montello the founder of the family began turning local grapes into wine, in the early nineteen hundreds. This rosé carries that name.
Pinot Noir from vines between twenty and fifty years old, between 200 and 300 metres. Rose petals in the glass, wild strawberries and red fruit on the nose, six to nine months on the lees before release.
