Viticulture: Spur pruned cordon trained vines planted at a density between 2,800 vines per hectare and 5,500 per hectare.
Vinification: The grapes were softly pressed. Fermentation took place at 25C in stainless steel tanks lasting 10 days. Maceration on skins lasted 12 days. The wine did not go though malolactic fermentation. The wine was aged for 4 months in stainless steel tanks followed by 1 month in bottle prior to release.
Tasting Note: ""Caletta"" rose, made from the Merlot grape, has a full bouquet with hints of tropical fruit. The wine is well-balanced, rich and full-bodied with a tangy acidity that beautifully complements the velvet-smooth fruit.
Every day serving suggestion: Chilled to accompany fish based antipasti, soups, boiled meats and vegetable flans.
