Roscato Blueberry

Roscato Blueberry is a blueberry-infused Italian sweet wine bottled at 7.0% ABV in a 750ml format. Produced by Cavit, one of northern Italy's most established winemaking consortiums, this expression stands out for its creamy mousse texture and intense berry character that bridges the gap between dessert wine and lightly sparkling red.

Quick Facts: ABV: 7.0%  |  Origin: Northern Italy  |  Style: Sweet Blueberry-Infused Wine  |  Producer: Cavit

Production & Heritage

Cavit was founded in 1950 as a cooperative consortium of winegrowers in the Trentino region of northern Italy, and it has grown into one of the country's most prolific wine producers. Roscato Blueberry is made by infusing high-quality blueberries into a base wine, resulting in a gently effervescent, fruit-forward expression with a distinctive creamy foam. The low 7.0% ABV keeps the wine approachable and refreshing, while careful attention during fermentation preserves the natural sweetness and berry intensity that defines the Roscato range.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Ripe blueberry dominates from the first pour, followed by undertones of red berries and a subtle fresh, grassy quality. The aromatic profile is fruit-driven and immediately inviting.

Taste: The entry is juicy with a burst of plump, sweet blueberry that coats the palate. Mid-palate, a pleasant creaminess emerges from the wine's gentle effervescence, and soft dry tannins provide enough structure to keep the sweetness from becoming cloying. The overall impression is lush and berry-forward without tipping into syrupy territory.

Finish: Medium in length with lingering blueberry and a light tannic grip. The creamy foam dissipates cleanly, leaving a balanced sweet-tart berry note.

How to Drink Roscato Blueberry

Serve well chilled, between 40–45°F, to let the effervescence and fruit flavors shine at their brightest. On its own over ice, the wine makes an easy warm-weather pour. A Berry Sangria benefits from Roscato Blueberry's natural fruit intensity, reducing the need for added sugar. A Blueberry Spritz — topped with club soda and a lemon twist — turns it into a low-ABV aperitivo. And in a Berry Bellini, it substitutes beautifully for Prosecco, contributing color, sweetness, and a richer berry dimension.

Best For

Roscato Blueberry is noticeably sweeter, lower in alcohol at 7.0% ABV, and built around its signature blueberry character rather than traditional red grape varietals.

Is Roscato Blueberry good for beginners? Its low 7.0% ABV, approachable sweetness, and familiar fruit flavor make it one of the most beginner-friendly wines on the market. It requires no decanting or special glassware — just a good chill.

Where is Roscato Blueberry made? Roscato Blueberry is produced by Cavit, a winemaking consortium headquartered in the Trentino region of northern Italy. Cavit has been operating since 1950 and draws on the viticultural traditions of its member growers across the region.

What foods pair well with Roscato Blueberry? Dark chocolate truffles complement its berry sweetness with bittersweet depth. Fresh fruit tarts echo the wine's blueberry notes and add a buttery pastry contrast. Mild soft cheeses like Brie create a creamy textural match. Grilled peaches with mascarpone mirror the wine's fruit-and-cream character. Vanilla panna cotta provides a neutral canvas that lets the blueberry flavor take center stage.

What sizes does Roscato Blueberry come in? Roscato Blueberry is widely available in the standard 750ml bottle format.

Is Roscato Blueberry worth the price? Roscato Blueberry positions squarely in the entry-level tier, making it an accessible choice for everyday enjoyment.

Why Roscato Blueberry?

What separates Roscato Blueberry from the growing field of flavored wines is the involvement of Cavit, a producer with over seven decades of Italian winemaking experience behind it. The creamy foam texture is a genuine differentiator — most fruit-infused wines at this price point are still or only faintly carbonated, while Roscato's mousse adds a tactile dimension that elevates the drinking experience. At 7.0% ABV, it occupies a useful niche for occasions where full-strength wine feels like too much but a soft drink won't do. For anyone drawn to sweet, berry-driven wines with a bit of Italian pedigree, this expression earns its popularity on flavor and drinkability alone.
