I Marini Cicala Salento Rosato IGP - Felline 2024

Fresh and immediate, I Marini Cicala’s Salento Rosato IGP expresses a Mediterranean character that is bright and thirst-quenching. The color is pale pink with saline highlights; on the nose it opens with young red fruits, hints of citrus and light floral notes that accompany the profile without overwhelming it. On the palate the sip is lean, driven by good acidity and sapidity that support the drinkability, with moderate body and a fine texture that invites another sip. A slight mineral accent contributes to the overall character and lengthens the finish.

It naturally lends itself to aperitivo but also stands up well to a meal: raw seafood and carpaccios, summer salads, simple pasta dishes with tomato and mild cured meats find a good balance with this rosé; also excellent with grilled fish. Thanks to its balance and aromatic clarity it’s a versatile bottle, to be served at around 10–12 °C to showcase its freshness and aromas without masking them. A straightforward choice for those seeking immediacy and pleasantness in the glass.
