Stella Rosa Watermelon Semi-Sweet Rose Wine is a proprietary blend of several white grape varietals including White Moscato (an indigenous grape variety from Piedmont), and a touch of Barbara for color. The wine has natural flavors of watermelon that are created using a distillation process of Italian fruits grown in southern Italy. The grapes are harvested, pressed, centrifuged, and then held cold as juice at 28 degrees Fahrenheit. The juice is fermented at various intervals throughout the year allowing the wine to remain fresh and delicate. The Riboli family uses this technique to create an off-dry Rosé, busting with fresh flavors and natural carbonation. During fermentation process, the alcohol is created in tandem with the wine's natural carbonation. Once the desired sweetness is achieved, the wine is centrifuged and bottled. Its natural acidity and low pH strike the perfect balance with the wine's inherent sweetness. It is not cloying or heavy. Serve chilled by-the-glass, pour over ice, or mix with your favorite spirit for an all-natural, fruit-forward cocktail. This flavor pairs wonderfully with light salads, such as Greek or Caesar, as well as savory appetizers like edamame or jalapeño poppers. For dessert, pair it with coconut cream pie! To create Stella Rosa Wines, the Riboli family chose the region of Asti, a province in Piedmont, Italy, as the source for its aromatic grapes, which have become the hallmark for the Stella Rosa style of wines. The area of Asti has particular significance to the family, as it is the birthplace of the family matriarch, Maddalena Riboli. The first Stella Rosa was Moscato D'Asti, which has become a flagship of the brand. Soon after, Stella Rosa Rosso was created - the brand's first semi-sweet, semi-sparkling red wine blend, and first wine of its kind to be brought to America from Asti. The rapid phenomenal successes of these two wines began the lineage of Stella Rosa, which now boasts over 35 distinctive flavors.
