Rosé 2012

Rosé is made from red wine grapes. Contrary to red wine production, 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 its typical Rosé colour. The character of a Rosé wine lies in between whites and reds. It combines the fresh and juvenile fruitiness of a white wine with the fullness of a red. Therefore fruity red wine grapes are preferred in Rosé production. We like to use Blaufränkisch because of its frisky acidity and distinguished flavour.

Tasting notes

Our Blaufränkisch Rosé shows a beautiful red colour. The aromatic bouquet already hints at its fruity character. The Rosé inspires with an exquisite freshness that is emphasized by its fine balance of sweetness and acidity.

Food suggestion

Well suited to a cold meal, starters or to light vegetable dishes. Also ideal for light meat, fish or just for enjoying a few comfy hours in company.

Ageing potential

Best to drink within two years after the harvest.
