A beautifully, elegant Rose - such a food friendly wine that will have even the hardened sceptics seen the wine through rose tinted specs!
Tasting Notes
La Vie en Rose is a beautifully elegant wine and now it comes with refreshing new packaging to match. Fresh, summery and pale in colour, this dry rosé has hints of summer fruits such as strawberry and wild raspberry and mouth-watering acidity. Food friendly and delicious.
Viticulture
Top category grapes from the Puichéric area from the best qualitative plots and vines averaging 25 years old. 150m above sea level, the vines are protected from wind and receive plenty of sunshine. Grapes mature slowly developing an aromatic profile.
Winemaking
The grapes are selected among the coolest vineyards to ensure good natural acidity. Harvest is during the coolest hours of the day, early morning and the grapes are directly pressed into airbag presses. The juice is cold settled and goes though fermentation at cool temperature for 2 weeks. The wines are then quickly cleared off their gross lees and are kept in stainless steel tanks on fine lees only until bottling, in order to keep maximum fresh fruit and freshness..
