PURCHASE:
Yes, in stock! (1-3 days)Year in and year out, one of the most popular wines among Vinesse club members is Stella Rosa..
That's why we secure a supply each time a new bottling is released. Stella Rosa is grown near the beautiful village of Santo Stefano Belbo in the Piedmont region of Italy. There, it's crafted into a bright and refreshing sparkling wine.
Many people are surprised to learn that sparkling wine is made in Italy, and they're downright shocked when they hear about a red sparkler from Italy. The northern Piedmont is the sparkling wine capital of Italy, its cool climate being conducive to growing the grape varieties that make good sparklers.
This is the home of Stella Rosa, a red sparkler meant to be served well chilled and enjoyed with fresh fruit, cheese or brunch fare. Not as "bubbly" as French Champagne, its effervescence is no less enjoyable, and the wine is simply delightful to drink. No wonder our members love it so much.
