Rose Wine Details

Description: Silver medal winner at 2006 Taster's Guild Int'l Wine Competition. After careful harvesting, destemming and crushing portions of free run juice were removed from selected lots of Nova Scotia grown Marechal Foch grapes. This juice, which was pink in colour and full of flavour was used to produce Jost Vineyards’ premiere vintage of Limited Edition 2005 Rosé. This semi-dry rosé is salmon-pink in colour with predominantly fresh berry fruit characteristics.
