It is said that the Molmenti’s intuition was born during a trip to France, where he would have appreciated the local rosé wines and would have studied their production methods. Back in Italy, in 1896 he applied “White” winemaking to the traditional grapes of Garda region, that is Groppello, Marzemino, Barbera and Sangiovese, thus creating and spreading a type of rosé still produced and appreciated over the years.
