I would say in a given year I taste 4-6 dozen Rosés that people bring me to potentially offer up to the Nicholas Wines faithful. I cherry pick the top ones – the best values, the best deals, etc.
This is one of those that stole the show at a tasting – a full-throttle, energetic Rosé made from 100% Pinot Grigio in Venice. It demonstrates all of the amazing qualities of the Collio region in Friuli Venezia-Giulia: it has superb weight and texture, and is mineral-edged, savory, tangy, and lively. And, it’s a perfect match for anything at the table or off the grill.
This one is from just to the west of Gorizia, and is conveniently protected from both the cold northern winds and the characteristic “bora” wind of Trieste. There’s ideal gravelly/sandy soils and ample sunlight – perfectly balanced by super cool nights, which leads to extended hang times and juicy fruit that is roaring to go.

90 Points, James Suckling
Pale coral color with aromas of dried flowers, red apples and grapefruit. Tangy and fruity with medium body and a dry, subtly spicy finish.
92 Points, James Suckling – 90 Points, Vinous
The Pinot Grigio Mongris is their reserve Pinot Grigio bottling. It still spends most of its time in stainless steel to preserve the freshness and aromatics, but it also spends a little time in big Hungarian barrels, adding a touch of richness and complexity to this beaming Pinot Grigio while also giving it ageability. Unsurprisingly, the critics raved, with Vinous and James Suckling both giving the wine 90+ point scores. Vinous called it, “round and enveloping with a stimulating core of zesty green citrus”. Suckling gave it a big 92-point score and highlighted its “concentrated, complex and spicy palate”.
The Rosa di Ceparano 2021 is a racy blend made up of 60% Sangiovese and 40% Syrah vinified separately but both in stainless steal. Vinifying separately gives this wine a lot of flair and personality with inviting notes of fresh flowers, cherries, white peach and wild strawberries On the palate the wine it’s a little bit savory, with a solid core of red berry flavors with hints of citrus and even a little shot of spice and nutmeg that flashes. It’s a vibrant Rose that can completely hold its own with food.
The newly released Crochet Sancerre Rosé is drawn from the high elevations of Janine and Teddy Crochet’s Pinot Noir vines in the village of Bué. The conditions are perfect for crisp, delicious Sancerre Rosé. Salmon-pink in color with a pretty nose featuring aromas of roses and cherry fruits. This is as well balanced as always with terrific fruit flavors of citrus and red berries with racy a high-toned finish.
For the first time, we have the 2021 Abbonna Dolcetto Langhe in house. This is a fantastic and fun bottle to enjoy on it’s own, but it is also a showstopper with pizza. Made for those who love their wines with inky dark fruit, this boasts a jet black color with aromas of black cherry, blackberries and baked cake spice. The Langhe Dolcetto is the product of extremely low-yielding but highly concentrated juice that comes from the younger vines of her Estate. Incredibly fun to drink and to smell — it’s also what some would argue is the best compliment to a good pizza pie with some meat on it!
