"Fleur de la Terre" Rose

"Fleur de la Terre" Rose Wine Details
Price: $17.00 per bottle

Description: Offering aromas and flavors of just picked raspberries, strawberries and fresh citrus blossoms, this is a very pleasant, dry, full-bodied rosé. A versatile wine, our “fleur de la terre” is wonderful as an aperitif or as we dare to say paired with anything on the table from seafood to steak. This year our rose is 100% merlot from the Mudd Vineyard. We de-stemmed the fruit into small, one-ton bins which we filled only ¼ full. We then stomped on the fruit by foot and allowed the grapes to soak overnight for 18 hours. The contents of the bins were then lightly pressed and, the beautifully colored juice is then racked into stainless steel barrels where it is fermented like a white wine. This is a process that allows us to produce a traditional, delicious and fun small-lot rosé perfect for all your al fresco activities.
