Tasting Notes

What Senti's Glera and Pinot Nero rosé tastes like

Viticoltori Ponte's pink Prosecco leads with strawberry and redcurrant over a soft, off-dry palate. The notes below draw on the producer's own description and the Vivino drinker consensus across the Ponte Prosecco Rosé range.

Nose

The nose is light and overtly fruity, led by fresh strawberry and redcurrant that Virgin Wines and Vivino drinkers both flag first. Viticoltori Ponte add a floral lift of acacia and wild rose from the Glera, with a faint lychee note off the Pinot Nero. It reads as a simple, summery pink Prosecco rather than a complex one.

Palate

Off-dry and soft, with around 11 g/L of residual sugar from the Extra Dry style giving a gentle roundness rather than obvious sweetness. The Charmat-method bubbles are fine and frothy, and bright Glera acidity of roughly 5.5 to 6 g/L keeps it fresh. Red-berry fruit carries through, joined by a touch of white peach at 11% alcohol.

Finish

The finish is short and clean, closing on strawberry and a crisp, frothy fizz. There is no oak and little length, which is exactly the brief for an aperitivo fizz.

Overall

An easy, sociable pink Prosecco that Virgin Wines buyers rate 4.4 out of 5 across 393 ratings, with the wider Ponte rosé range sitting around 4.2 on Vivino. Drinkers consistently call it light, crisp and easy to drink; the main criticism is that it is pleasant rather than memorable. Best poured cold as an aperitif within a year, not cellared.

Wine fit score

How Senti Prosecco Rosé scores on the Italian Wine Fit Score

Senti is built for easy, sociable drinking, so it rates high for everyday and aperitivo use and low for cellaring. The dimensions below explain each score.

Best intro to this style 8.8/10

Soft, fruity, off-dry and low in alcohol at 11%, this is about as approachable as Italian sparkling gets for a new drinker.

Best everyday bottle 8.5/10

Light, inexpensive and easy to open on a whim, Senti is squarely an everyday and party fizz rather than a special-occasion bottle.

Best with food 7.8/10

Bright acidity, light body and a touch of Extra Dry sweetness make Senti a flexible aperitivo and seafood partner, though it lacks the weight for rich mains.

Best value 6.0/10

At £14.99 it sits around the going rate for branded UK pink Prosecco: fair rather than a bargain for an entry-level Charmat fizz.

Scoring is rule-based and deterministic. The model and weightings are documented in our Wine Fit Score methodology.

Senti is bottled non-vintage for a consistent house style and is meant to be drunk young and fresh. Virgin Wines recommends opening within a year of purchase, while the bubbles and red-berry fruit are at their liveliest.

The disciplinare, the place, the label

Prosecco DOC Rosé rules behind a Veneto pink fizz

Prosecco Rosé became legal only in 2020, when the DOC allowed 10 to 15% Pinot Nero to be blended into Glera. Senti is made inside that frame by Viticoltori Ponte in Ponte di Piave.

01

DOC, DOCG, IGT: what the badges mean

Italian wine law sorts bottles into a pyramid. DOCG sits at the top: tightly drawn boundaries, prescribed grapes, mandatory ageing, government tasting before release. DOC is the same idea with looser thresholds. IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is broader still, requiring only that 85% of the grapes come from the named territory.

Prosecco is in the DOC tier. That is not a quality verdict, it is a description of how much freedom the producer has at vinification and ageing.

02

The denomination rules, in detail

  • Allowed grapes. 5 varieties listed in the disciplinare

What sits behind the price of Senti Prosecco Rosé Extra Dry

Tracked from
£14.99
Direction
Mostly cost down
Drivers
3 up / 3 down
Main factor
High-yield Prosecco DOC Glera off the Treviso plain
  1. 01

    High-yield Prosecco DOC Glera off the Treviso plain

    Cost down

    Senti is built on widely planted, high-yielding Glera from the Prosecco DOC zone around Ponte di Piave, which keeps fruit cost low and underpins the £14.99 price.

  2. 02

    Charmat tank method, not bottle fermentation

    Cost down

    Prosecco is made by the quicker, cheaper Charmat method in pressurised tanks rather than Champagne-style bottle ageing, so Senti avoids the labour and cellar time that lift sparkling-wine prices.

  3. 03

    Co-op scale at Viticoltori Ponte

    Cost down

    The wine is produced by Viticoltori Ponte, a large Veneto growers' co-op founded in 1948, whose shared facilities spread fixed costs across many members and hold the bottle price down.

  4. 04

    Separately vinified Pinot Nero for the rosé blend

    Cost up

    Adding 10 to 15% separately vinified Pinot Nero to the Glera, as the 2020 Prosecco Rosé rules require, costs more than a plain white Prosecco and nudges the price up a little.

  5. 05

    UK alcohol duty and VAT

    Cost up

    UK sparkling duty plus 20% VAT account for several pounds of the £14.99 shelf price; HMRC sparkling duty alone is roughly £2.67 on a 75cl bottle at 11% ABV under 2026 rates.

  6. 06

    Virgin Wines own-label margin

    Cost up

    As a Virgin Wines exclusive Senti label sold direct, the retailer's buying margin and marketing are baked into the £14.99 rather than split with a separate brand owner.

01

High-yield Prosecco DOC Glera off the Treviso plain

Cost down

Senti is built on widely planted, high-yielding Glera from the Prosecco DOC zone around Ponte di Piave, which keeps fruit cost low and underpins the £14.99 price.

Perfect Pairings

Dishes that complement this wine

Food Pairing

Aperitivo, sushi and light seafood: dishes for Senti's off-dry fizz

Damiano Canali pours this as an aperitif and with sushi, sashimi and fish appetisers. Its bright acidity, light body and faint sweetness handle delicate seafood and gentle spice better than a still wine would.

Acidity matching Strong match

Aperitivo and fried antipasti

Glera's bright acidity and the wine's frothy bubbles scrub fat and salt from fried and cured aperitivo bites. The light body keeps it refreshing rather than filling across a spread of nibbles.

Try with: Insalata Caprese · gnocco fritto · arancini · salumi · olives · More pairings →

Fat cutting Strong match

Sushi, sashimi and raw seafood

The winemaker himself recommends this with sushi and sashimi. Fine bubbles and acidity refresh the palate between pieces, while the faint Extra Dry sweetness softens wasabi and pickled ginger heat.

Try with: Sashimi · nigiri sushi · California roll · prawn tempura · oysters · More pairings →

Salt balance Good match

Oysters and delicate shellfish

Prosecco Rosé and briny shellfish is a classic match: the wine's acidity and gentle sweetness balance the saline snap of oysters and prawns without overpowering their delicate flesh.

Try with: Oysters · Scottish smoked salmon · prawn tempura · seafood antipasti · More pairings →

Sweet balance Good match

Mild spice and aromatic Asian plates

A whisper of Extra Dry sugar and low 11% alcohol let this tame chilli heat that would clash with a dry still wine. It bridges sweet-savoury Thai and Chinese dishes where bigger reds fail.

Try with: Chicken pad thai · sweet and sour prawns · spring rolls · tom yum

Aromatic bridge Good match

Strawberries and light fruit desserts

The wine's own strawberry and redcurrant fruit echoes fresh berries, and its softness suits light, not-too-sweet desserts. Keep the pudding less sweet than the wine so the fizz still reads as off-dry.

Try with: Strawberries and cream · fruit tart · panna cotta

Avoid Clash

Heavy, oaky or fiery plates

Skip rich roast meats, big oak-aged reds territory, blue cheese and full-blast vindaloo heat. The wine's light body and frothy sweetness get flattened by heavy tannin, heavy fat or extreme chilli, leaving it tasting thin and sugary.

Skip with: Beef stew · vindaloo · blue cheese · barbecue ribs · aged steak · Pairing guide →

Common Questions

Senti is a Virgin Wines exclusive label made in Veneto by Viticoltori Ponte, a growers' co-op in Ponte di Piave near Treviso. Its head winemaker, Damiano Canali, has led the cellar since 2010.

It is a Prosecco DOC Rosé, blending roughly 85 to 90% Glera with 10 to 15% Pinot Nero. The Pinot Nero is vinified separately and adds the pink colour and red-berry fruit; Prosecco Rosé has only been allowed since 2020.

It is Extra Dry, which in Prosecco terms means off-dry rather than bone-dry, with around 11 g/L of residual sugar. You get a soft, gently sweet roundness balanced by fresh acidity and fine bubbles.

Pour it as an aperitif, or with sushi, sashimi, oysters and light seafood. Its acidity, light body and faint sweetness also handle mild Thai and Chinese spice; the winemaker suggests vegetable couscous and light Mediterranean risottos.

Drink it young. As a non-vintage Charmat-method Prosecco it is built for freshness, and Virgin Wines recommends opening it within a year of purchase rather than cellaring it.

It is a Virgin Wines exclusive priced at £14.99 for a 75cl bottle. Because it is an own-label wine you will not find it across other UK retailers; the live listing on this page links to its single stockist.
