Rosachiara

Sicilia Rosato DOC

Tasting notes

Rosachiara is made from a subtle blend of two well known indigenous Sicilian grape varieties: Nero d’Avola and Frappato. This combination produces a vibrant coloured rosè imbued with fresh floral notes coupled with the mellow flavours of strawberries and peaches. The perfect balance is appreciated on the palate of tannins and acidity which gives it freshness and pleasure.

Vinification

The must, obtained by the pressing of the grapes, is left in contact with the skins for about 10 hours, to extract perfumes fom the skins and to obtain the typical pink color. After this time the must is separated from the skins therefore alcoholic fermentation begins about 18°C.

Aging in the cellar

Alcoholic fermentation follows a 4 months refinement period in stainless steel barrels.
