Our Rosé is out!
April 3rd, 2008 by Ana Keller
Well, I just came back from a 2 week holiday with the kids and 19 more! My husband´s longtime friends organized a well choreographed trip taking us from Bordeaux, to the famed caves of Lascaux, then to Toulouse, spending good Friday in Colliure, where we say the processions, then crossing France, spending Easter in the Pyrenees and ending with our kids doing a scavenger hunt through the Louvre in Paris. It was a wonderful experience, and I must say I loved the wines in the Languedoc-Rousillon area. It made me very happy to get back and settle into our life, and think that with our 2007 Rosé I just might capture a sense of our holidays. Our Rosé is made from our Syrah grapes. A few hours after the fruit was de-stemmed and crushed, it was pressed, drained off the lightly colored juice into older barrels where it was fermented to dryness. Beautiful medium salmon-rose in color. There are great fresh fruit aromas of ripe strawberries, cherries, and apricot which make me want to cook!
