Merlot Rose

Merlot Rose Wine Details
Price: $12.00 per bottle

Description: This light rosé wine was crafted using the traditional way of saignée. This French term for bleeding refers to running off some free-run juice from the red grape fermenter at an early stage with the purpose of concentrating the final red wine. After a maceration of 48 hours, the pink colored and flavorful juice was bled off and fermented at cold temperature as typical for a white wine to preserve its natural appeal. With a very attractive and pale ruby color, our Merlot Rosé reveals a vibrant red fruit expression with strawberry and raspberry aromas. The refreshing mouth is balanced with pleasant acidity and berry flavors, ending with a hint of vanilla and an appealing smooth finish.
