Prosecco Rosé Bosco del Merlo is a blend of Glera and Pinot Nero vinified in red, with a lower yield/hectare to have higher intensity color and aromas. Grapes are vinified separately and in different periods; early harvesting of the Pinot Noir takes place to maintain the fresh, fruity notes. As provided by the disciplinary, Glera and Pinot Noir grapes belong to the same vintage.

After 2-3 days of maceration the Pinot Nero matures in steel until blending. After the soft pressing, the must ferments at low temperature (15°C) to enhance freshness and fruity notes. To take foam, the Charmat Method is use, refermentation in steel tanks at low temperature and frequent batonnage to enhance the fragrance and fine perlage. The period of taking foam is beyond 60 days.
