Tosco's word

Antinori's Bolgheri Rosato is the smart pick if you want a supple rosé to serve young, at €37, with good value for money and versatile pairings, from fish to white meats. The Pomino Spumante Rosato, for its part, scores higher on producer and winemaking (8.2) and has a more reliable rating, but its €60 price with no distinction makes it harder to justify. For a meal for two or four, take the Bolgheri; for an occasion where the sparkling style and the traditional method matter, the Pomino is worth its price.
