Iconic Italian Wine
We’re pairing Bottega Il Vino dei Poeti with “Eat Pray Love” by Elizabeth Gilbert. It’s a celebration of la dolce vita, the Italian good life, especially through food and drink.
This wine’s name, Il Vino dei Poeti, means “The Wine of Poets,” a tribute to artists who expressed the joy of life, much like Elizabeth finds her spark again over a perfect meal.
This iconic Italian rosé sparkling wine is one of the most recognizable wines in the Bottega portfolio, appreciated for its freshness, elegance, and visual appeal.
Crafted by Bottega, a family winery with four centuries of history and a strong brand heritage, this rosé is one of Italy’s most iconic sparkling wines. They were making wine before Jane Austen was making sentences.
Elegance Lifestyle

Tasting Profile
The colour alone is visual poetry: a delicate blush pink with a fine, persistent stream of bubbles. Its fine perlage (bubbles), adding a touch of visual luxury to any celebration.
It has a fresh and approachable profile that’s lively, balanced and easy to enjoy, ideal as an aperitif or with light dishes.
On the nose, you’ll find cherry, raspberry, and wild blackberry, followed by a soft floral whisper.
Because it’s a brut, it remains dry and sophisticated.
It’s exactly what you’d want in your glass while reading about a life-changing afternoon in an Italian café.
Just imagine how magical this would be paired with grilled octopus or a fresh caprese salad!
