This rosé wine has the same grape composition as the red wine, Lizzano Rosso DOC, meaning Negroamaro grapes (60-80%), with the permitted addition of Montepulciano and/or Sangiovese, Pinot Nero, Bombino Nero (0-40%) and Malvasia Nera and/or Malvasia di Lecce (0-10%).
With its ruby red color and delicate, fresh and harmonious taste, this Rosato (rosé) can offer an interesting experience, as it fits most lunch or dinner meals.
A fizzy Frizzante type is also available, called Giovane (young), which is, obviously, bottled young, having a low alcohol content. Can be enjoyed with most meals.
Lizzano Rosato DOC should be drunk young.

Did you know?
That Italy in 2011 was the worlds largest wine producer?
If you envision Sicily as an independent country, it would have the world’s seventh largest wine production, but despite the large quantities, the quality is high and steadily increasing. Today, Sicily has Italy’s third-largest wine production, and the island’s wine is Southern Italy’s most stable in terms of quality.
