What kind of wine is Spumante Brut Rosé 'Domino' - Vicara

The Spumante Brut Rosé 'Domino' - Vicara is an elegant interpretation of the Monferrato hill territory, born from a skillful blend of Barbera and Pinot Noir grapes.

The result is a sparkling wine with a modern, lively, and satisfying profile, perfect for those seeking a fresh and characterful rosé to enjoy on any occasion.
