Description:
Our 2009 Frontenac Rose wine is a blend using the red grapes Frontenac (92%) and Chambourcin (8%). This wine was a tasting room favorite last year and now can be purchased. The Frontenac grapes were harvested from Glacial Till Vineyard and our partners: Johnson Vineyard, Albrecht Vineyard, Cedar Ridge Vineyard, and Twin Creek Vineyard on September 21, 2009. The Chambourcin grapes used in this blend were harvested from Glacial Till Vineyard on October 1, 2009. The two grape varieties were immediately crushed, de-stemmed, and pressed to give the wine its rose color and kept separate for fermentation. The two grape musts were then inoculated with Assmasshausmen yeast to begin the primary fermentation. Once fermentation was complete the two wines were blended to create our 2009 Frontenac Rose. The finished wine is classified as a medium sweet wine, light and flavorful with a nose and taste of cherries. Drink chilled and enjoy now.
