Description
Fresh and dry with a light salmon pink colour the 2018 Rosé has aromas of raspberry sorbet and a soft, elegant palate of red plum, raspberry and a toffee apple finish with fresh acidity.
The grapes for this Rosé were sourced from our Bridge Pa Triangle vineyard. Harvested at optimum ripeness, Merlot (93%) and Cabernet Franc (7%). Spur pruning and good fruit exposure produced clean, ripe fruit with good concentration.
Destemmed grapes were transferred to a basket Press. A short period of soaking and light pressing was enough to colour the juice to a pale pink. Clean juice was run off to a separate tank to ferment at cool temperatures to retain the fruit flavours and reduce phenolics or any bitterness. The wine was then filtered for bottling late 2018.
Food Pairing: Crisp and refreshing it is best as a young wine, lightly chilled as an aperitif or with seafood, white meat and salad dishes.
