Made from 100% Malbec grapes, our Rosé is a bright and extra-dry Rosé that's lovely salmon pink in colour.
On the nose we get strawberry, raspberry, cranberry (we love berries!) with a hint of peachiness. This perfect sipper will make a fabulous apperitif or as a casual sipping wine anytime of the year. Pair with tapas, poached salmon, stir fry shrimp and seasonal cheese plates.
Our 2022 Rosé is made from 100% Malbec grapes harvested from Shaw Vineyard within the Osoyoos Region of the southern Okanagan Valley. The grapes underwent traditional old-world foot stomping (ouch, ouch, ouch those stems really hurt), then soaked on skins for 2 to 4 hours to develop the perfect colour, aroma, and flavour, before being lightly pressed. A small portion of the Malbec juice was frozen for preservation while the remaining juice was cool fermented and aged in a stainless-steel tank with minimal fining to maintain the pure fruit aromas and flavours. Then just before bottling the preserved Malbec juice was thawed and added back to the wine, a process called Süssreserve, to balance the sweetness and natural acidity of the wine. Limited production of 574 cases.
THE TASTE
The 2022 Rosé is a lovely salmon pink in colour. On the nose we get strawberry, raspberry, cranberry (we love berries!) with a hint of peachiness and honeydew melon. It’s a medium/light bodied dry wine that is a perfect sipper or food wine, you choose! The palate is a refreshing and crisp mix of red grapefruit and cran-raspberry.
