Giaros IGT rosé

One of the undoubtedly most prized wines of this winery.

Giaros is the brainchild of Anna and Carmelo Battaglia to celebrate a special occasion: the marriage of their daughter Rossella to Giacomo.

The colour is a pale cherry pink. It starts with strong fruity notes and continues with an intense and harmonious taste, with pleasant freshness and long aromatic persistence.

SOILS: Hilly terrain, optimal exposure and calcareous clay composition.

GROWTH FORM: Gouyot with 5,000/6,000 vines/hectare.

GRAPE VARIETIES: 50% Calabrese and 50% Gaglioppo.

VINIFICATION: manual harvesting is carried out around the first ten days of September.

Crushing, without destemming, is followed by a brief cryomaceration to favour the extraction of characteristic aromas. Soft pressing produces the free-run juice, which undergoes static decantation. With the inoculation of the selected yeasts, fermentation starts on the clean must. Fermentation continues at a temperature of 16° C.  This is followed by racking and maturation in steel.

ORGANOLEPTIC CHARACTERISTICS: Pale cherry pink colour. It starts with marked fruity notes and continues with an intense and harmonious taste, with pleasant freshness and long aromatic persistence.

ALCOHOL: 13,5 %Vol.

SERVING TEMPERATURE: 12°

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: very versatile, from aperitifs to fish in brodetto and from white meat to mushrooms.
