Domaine des Tourelles Rose

In a Nutshell

Grown up, pale Rosé from Bekaa Valley.

Tasting Notes

Pretty pink in colour spice notes and plenty of strawberry and red cherry fruits. This is a fuller bodied rosé with warm southern flavours of ripe summer fruits with a zesty spicy finish.

Production Notes

Vineyards are located in the Western Bekaa, and grapes are gown on 15-20 year old vines on sandy limestone soil. 100 % manual harvest takes place. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks for 10 days. The syrah undergoes a short maceration and bleeding (a rosé saignée), while the Cinsault and Tempranillo are direct pressed. No malolactic fermentation takes place. After blending the wine undergoes a gentle clarification.
