Don't let the pink color discourage you from trying
this wine. This is not a sweet wine, it is a dry Rose'.
We simply keep the juice on the skins for 72 hours
during fermentation. Then we press the skins off which
leave the beautiful pink color. This wine is a wonderfully
balanced wine that is the perfect compliment to all
foods and can be served chilled or at room temperature.
This crisp, refreshing, dry style Rose' has notes
of strawberry and apricot with a slight toasty characteristic.
It is an ideal celebration wine!
