Rosé Prosecco — a modern classic
Rosé Prosecco is a relatively new but fast-growing category — adding a small amount of Pinot Noir to the classic Glera gives Balbinot Millesimo Rosé a delicate pink hue and notes of red berries.
Tasting Notes
A delicate salmon-pink hue with a pearly sheen and a persistent, fine mousse, lending it elegant lightness and sparkle.
A delicate, fresh bouquet of red berries, strawberry, raspberry and pomegranate, rounded out by floral hints of rose and peony. A light citrus accent lends a sense of purity and vitality.
Soft and airy, with pleasant freshness and a harmonious balance between fruity and floral notes. The finish is lightly creamy and fresh, with a lasting impression of elegance and summer.
Serve well chilled — between 6 and 8°C, in a flute glass, to bring out the fine bead and the aromas. Excellent as an aperitif, with light starters, fresh salads, sushi, seafood, fruit or strawberry and raspberry desserts.
Keep upright in a cool, dark place at 10–12°C. Best enjoyed within 1–2 years of bottling, while its freshness and finesse are at their peak.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does “Millesimo” mean? A term indicating that the wine is from a specific vintage (the year is shown on the label), as opposed to blended, non-vintage Proseccos.
What’s the difference from regular Prosecco? Adding Pinot Noir tints the wine pink and adds notes of red berries to Glera’s classic profile.
The second fermentation takes place in a tank (the Charmat method), preserving the fresh fruity aromas of the varieties.
Terroir and production philosophy
The Veneto region, home of Prosecco, combines hilly terrain with a temperate climate shaped by the proximity of the Alps and the Adriatic Sea. These conditions allow Glera to retain its characteristic aromatic freshness and delicate acidity, essential for a quality sparkling wine.
Adding a small amount of Pinot Noir to the blend of Balbinot Millesimo Rosé is a relatively new practice in the region, made possible by updated rules for rosé Prosecco. The Charmat method — a second fermentation in a sealed tank — preserves the fresh fruity and floral aromas, unlike the more complex bottle-fermentation method used for Champagne.
This blend of tradition and measured innovation reflects the dynamic evolution of the Prosecco category in recent years.
The perfect occasion
Sparkling wines are best enjoyed young — within 12–18 months of bottling. Store upright in a cool place, away from light and vibration.
An excellent choice for toasts, celebrations, or simply as an elegant aperitif. Its pink colour makes it especially fitting for romantic evenings or as a gift for a special occasion like a birthday.
