About the Wine: From younger vineyard parcels of the estate (average 20 years) on limestone and clay soils at about 750 meters altitude. Handpicked at the end of September. The grapes are macerated for 8 hours and then the rosé juice is drawn off and fermented separately in stainless steel tanks under strict temperature control. Aged sur lie in stainless steel until December.
Tasting Notes: Ercavio Rosado simply screams “bowl full of wild strawberries.” It is a medium bodied Rosado, with plenty of juicy fruit and tangy acidity. Like combining a red and a yellow Skittle and then subtracting 90% of the sugar. A delicious friend for summer fare.
