Rose of Merlot 2008

Carneros

         Blend:           100% merlot                               

           Alcohol:          14.8%

 

   Fermentation:          This was fermented in 60 gallon French oak barrels.  We prevented malo-lactic fermentation so as

                                  to retain crisp acidity.                           

              Aging:          This was aged in the barrels for 3 months prior to bottling and release for immediate enjoyment.

 

Residual Sugar:          0.02% (dry)

 

Cases Produced:       25

 

Winemakers Notes:

 

Medium to deep pink color; lovely red berry and rose petal aroma and cherry and tangerine taste; medium bodied with refreshing acidity.  This is the perfect spring & summertime refresher, great alone or with salads, sushi, salmon or other white or pink seafood.  Take this out of the refrigerator 15 minutes before serving so it’s chilled but not too cold.
