Les Crêtes Valle d'Aosta Rosé DOC 2022
Les Crêtes Valle d'Aosta Rosé DOC 2022
The grapes for this beautiful Rosé come from the two fields Coteau La Tour and Bufferia di Aymavilles located 700 meters above sea level. The subsoil here is sand and moraine.
The harvest took place in the latter half of September 2022, immediately after cooling down with dry ice, whereby only the finest parts of the aroma and the clearest and brightest color emerge. The wine has a very short skin contact of only 3 hours, after which fermentation has continued for 12 days in steel tanks at 14 degrees Celsius, and the wine has subsequently been left on the lees for 2 months.
It is light in colour, and in the nose you are met by a delicate, floral and fruity nose of red berries and melon. In the mouth you are also met by notes of pears.
The wine has a very fine balance, and the acidity is absolutely fantastic.
We recommend enjoying the wine with snacks, starters with ham, young cheeses and sushi
The wine is a blend of several clones from old vines of the region's original petit rouge grape and pinot noir from the house's fields.
The first vintage of the wine was 2019.
