2007 Rosato of Sangiovese<br>
Just Released!

Sangiovese juice for our Rosato comes from two sources. Some of the grapes are crushed into bins for skin contact before pressing. We also drain off about 15% of the juice from the red wine tank prior to fermentation. The juices are combined and fermented to make a delicious, dry, food-friendly rose.

WINEMAKER NOTES

The Rosato has a reddish-pink color with a delightful strawberry and spice aroma.The round texture and crisp acidity carry the bright strawberry and cranberry flavors to a lingering finish.

FOOD RECOMMENDATIONS

Wonderful by itself as an aperitif, this wine also goes well with appetizers such as smoked salmon, grilled marinated prawns, sushi, or mussels steamed in sherry with tomatoes and paprika
