($18, Angelini Wine, Ltd):  Carpenè Malvolti, a top Prosecco producer, has fashioned this rosé bubbly from Pinot Noir (85%) and Rabosco, grown in the Veneto.  Since rosé is not recognized as Prosecco category, this wine carries no legal designation.  But don’t let that bother you.  Rather full-bodied (that’s the red grapes speaking) it has good acidity and an ever so slightly sweet finish.  It would be a pleasant way to start an evening and an excellent choice if the evening consisted of spicy Asian fare.
