Monika Enterprises brings Fantini’s two new Rosé wines to India
The Fantini Group has launched their line of finest Rosé wines from the Abruzzo region of Italy, Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo, and Calalenta, which are being imported in India by Monika Enterprises. The most exciting part about these wines is that they are currently the only Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo in the Indian Market and the Calalenta - the only Italian-made Merlot rosé in the country.
Sujata Patil, Wine sales head of Monika Enterprises, is the person behind identifying the gap in the market and thereby introducing these wines to the Indian Market via Monika Enterprises. Sujata is an expert in the domain of wines -- from deep knowledge about wines by themselves to an excellent overview of the business aspects of the wine industry. Having worked with major companies, she has gained valuable experience identifying quality wines that would be perfect for the Indian palate. This assignment with the import house also allowed her to create a portfolio of international wines imported into India.
Fantini Cerasuolo d’Abruzzo
Cerasuolo translates as "Pale cherry red" and is the rose wine from Abruzzo, Italy. With a concise skin contact, this wine made purely from Montepulciano d'Abruzzo grapes still wears the pale cherry red color as its name suggests. This wine's freshness and round structure are accompanied by a bouquet of incredible scents and small red berry, particularly strawberry; flavors to please your taste buds and will pair well with Asian and Italian cuisine.
Fantini Calalenta
A 'Provence Style' rosé with great potential based on Merlot coming right from the sunny hills of the Abruzzo coast in Italy. Made from grapes hand-picked at night (Calalenta), this is a wine with refreshing acidity with aromas of strawberry, fresh watermelons, and rose petals and a long and intense finish. This rosé wine reveals to the nose all kinds of mulberries, blueberries, blackberries, and blackcurrants, complemented by pink grapefruit and floral hints.
The Calalenta is currently the only Italian-made Merlot rosé, perfect for vegetarian dishes, raw fish, and Japanese cuisine.
Both the wines are available at select wine stores in Mumbai and can also be ordered directly from Monika Enterprises by getting in touch with them on info@monikaenterprise.in or on Instagram: @monikaenterprise.
