Tasting notes:
"This is a zippy, delightfully raspberry-scented Pinot Noir rosé. Bone-dry yet deeply concentrated, with ripe, juicy blackberry and cherry flavors, it's a firmly structured sip that can stand up to colder weather and sturdier fare like game or salmon. Finishes long on delicate tea tannins and a kiss of smoky spice." ANNA LEE C. IIJIMA - Wine Enthusiast Mgazine.
About the wine:
After harvest in September 2019, the grapes are destemmed and remain on the mash for 8-14 hours. After that a gentle pressing with only 50% juice extraction. Carefully fermented and aged in stainless steel and used barrique barrels on full yeast until February 2020 without any fining or other technical measures.
