Rosé 2006
Rosé is made out of red wine grapes. Contrary to red wine the grapes used for Rosé are
pressed almost immediately after the harvest. During this short period the juice takes up only little
colour from the grape skins and the wine attains the typical Rosé colour. The character of
Rosé wines lies in between white and red wines. They combine the fresh and juvenile fruitiness of
whites with the fullness of reds. Therefore fruity red wine varieties are preferred in Rosé
production. We like to use Blaufränkisch grapes because of their frisky acidity and the especially
refined flavour.
Tasting notes: Our Blaufränkisch Rosé 2006 shows a bright light red colour. The full
flavour already hints its opulent character. The taste inspires with an exquisite fruitiness which
becomes even more advantageous in combination with the full body and the fine acidity. Rosé is a
great summer wine and ideal for contemplative hours.
