Frescobaldi »Aurea« Gran Rosé

Delicate rosé with greatness In the glass, the Aurea Gran Rosé shimmers a delicate pink with light golden nuances. Its nose is intense and very complex with refined notes of fresh fruit. In the mouth it reveals itself to be soft and velvety with sweet and spicy touches. The elegant acidity is underlined by mineral notes that give this rosé wine a unique character and provide the palate with lasting depth.The secret of the Aurea lies in the interplay of the individual characteristics of the terroir, the management of the vineyard and the human factor. This special rosé is created where the proximity to the sea meets the cultivation of white grape varieties and the production of Syrah wines. Its unmistakable elegance combined with its full body is the result of meticulous work in the vineyard and in the winery.The grapes are very carefully harvested by hand in the early, rather fresh hours of the morning and quickly brought to the cellar. The grapes are pressed extremely gently and carefully without the supply of oxygen so as not to stress the berries. This process, together with the careful selection of the must and the subsequent bottling for no less than 12 hours, allows unwanted soil and plant residues to be eliminated. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 16°C in French oak barrels (part toasted, part new). This is followed by an assemblage of the two grape varieties and 8 months of fine lees aging. Later, a small proportion of white Syrah from the previous year's harvest (Vin de Reserve) is added and aged in the bottle for 20 months. The result will delight you too!
