Luna Nuda Rosé

Dazzle your guests with your secret recipe offering a refreshing Rosé Sangria. The Luna Nuda 2019 Rosé is a beautiful expression of an Italian Rosé with a modern touch. While many Rosés in the central or southern Italian regions are dark in color, Luna Nuda leaves their wine on the skins for as little time as possible to have the brightest, most lively color in the glass.

Mionetto Prosecco Rosé DOC
The new Prosecco Rosé is incredibly unique, using a new blend of Glera (the Prosecco grape) and Pinot Nero. The Glera offers lightness and elegance along with minerality and citrus flavors combined with the Pinot Nero body, which offers structure and flavors of cherries and strawberry- the perfect pairing for Central Park picnics.
