The Wine
Our Rosetta is a Sangiovese Nebbiolo Rosé, a tribute to our Matriarch. Rosetta loved her garden it was her escape from long days working. Aromas of strawberries and wild raspberries. Dry and crisp with fresh cherry and plum flavours, the Nebbiolo lending length.
Winemaking
This rosé has been made from selected Sangiovese and Nebbiolo vineyards that are noted for producing soft, delicate and fruity styles of wine. The fruit was machine picked, crushed and left on its skins for 8 – 9 hours. After pressing, the juice was then slowly cool fermented at 15˚C to retain fruit aromatics and freshness.
