In the Glass — Tasting Notes
Maximum Rosé refuses easy sweetness, instead offering architectural precision. Two years' minimum rest on spent yeast gives it a distinctive brioche-tinged backbone, while wild strawberry, raspberry and violet arrive with genuine grip. The wine finishes dry and mineral rather than creamy, built for food and conversation at 12.5% ABV.
The Winery — Ferrari
Giulio Ferrari learned his craft in Champagne before settling in Trentino in 1902 to prove that world-class Metodo Classico could emerge from Alpine slopes. The Lunelli family has stewarded the estate since 1952, deepening that original vision. Today the wine draws from around 600 multigenerational growers who follow Ferrari's sustainable protocols across glacial soils. In 2023, Cyril Brun—a Chef de Cave from Aÿ with deep Champagne experience—joined as head winemaker, bringing fresh rigour to an already disciplined house. The vineyard's high-altitude positioning on the Dolomites (350–750 metres) creates significant diurnal temperature variation: cool nights and warm days preserve the acidity and aromatic depth that make this Pinot Noir-led blend (70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay) sing rather than shout.
At Your Table — Food Pairing & Serving
Maximum pairs beautifully with crab, prawns, smoked salmon, or anything dressed in cream and herbs—the wine's mineral structure stands up with confidence. It's vegan and vegetarian, and one of the finest examples of Sparkling Wine we've found from Italy. Whether you're hosting a celebration, planning a date night, or gathering for Sunday lunch, this rosé brings both elegance and food-friendly precision. Chill to 8–10°C to reveal its full aromatic complexity.
