Information about "Lomond Merlot Rosé 2024"
The Lomond Merlot Rosé is an enchanting Provençal-style rosé, displaying a delicate pink hue in the glass. Its captivating bouquet reveals fresh strawberry notes, ripe cherries, and fragrant rose petals, layered with a whisper of cotton candy in the background. With a medium body, this wine delights the palate with a zesty, crisp acidity and subtle layers of red fruits, ripe strawberries, and fine spices. A bone-dry expression with an invitingly low alcohol content of 11%.
The hand-harvested grapes were lightly crushed upon arrival at the cellar, utilizing only the free-run juice to ensure optimal purity of color and flavor in the wine. The juice was allowed to rest cool overnight, after which the clarified must was siphoned off, inoculated with selected yeasts, and fermented in stainless steel tanks. After fermentation, the wine was racked off the lees and stabilized and filtered before bottling.
