Description
OUR NEW MASTERPIECE
Rosé goes beyond the bottle; represents the energy of the vines, the power of our grapes and the elegance of a rosé blend made up of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon & Cabernet Franc.
The grapes for La Piu Belle Rosé 2023 were harvested early – some 3-4 weeks before those for the red wines – and at night. They were slowly pressed for 2 hours and then the first half of the fermentation took place at a low temperature (12oC), which was then increased to 15oC° until the fermentation was complete, to add body and enhance the aromatic palette.
With the 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, 7% Syrah and 5% Carmenère we were seeking a wine filled with red fruit notes but that would also surprise with nuances of apricot, peach, passionfruit and some notes of citrus fruit like orange and blossom. In the mouth, it delicately fills the mid-palate with vibrant acidity, giving movement to the wine with structure and a creamy texture thanks to the ageing in our barrels. Once the fermentation was complete, 16% of the wine went into Barroir barrels for a month and a half to evolve over its fine lees.
Pairing and Recommendations:
Toast with smoked salmon. Ricotta cheese and olive oil. Poached lobster with beurre blanc and steamed vegetables. Paella.
CRITIC ACCLAIM
“An enchanting nose exhibits white flowers and fruity notes of strawberry and raspberry. This rosé has a mineral character and offers bright flavors of berries alongside a lively acidity. The lasting finish shows fresh citrus notes.”
