Location and soil:
Lagrein, Merlot, Cabernet, Pinot Noir, Petit Verdot, Tempranillo and Syrah grown on the best red wine sites in Manincor and at Seehof, south-eastern slopes at 250 m above sea level with strong clay soils, interspersed with limestone gravel and other glacial rock deposits.
Expansion:
La Rose de Manincor is the juice extract from the best batches of red wine each year. Thus, the varietal composition and character change a little each year. The juice was extracted after a 24-hour maceration period and the must fermented in wooden barrels, partly spontaneously with the grape's own yeasts, followed by a further five months of maturation in wooden barrels on the fine lees.
Color:
Bright salmon pink.
Nose:
On the nose, the 2020 La Rose de Manincor presents intense fruit.
Cherries, rhubarb, wild raspberries and rosehip rise charmingly and stimulatingly from the glass, conveying a delicate sweetness.
The fine spicy notes of green pepper and juniper and the vegetal hints of sage, thyme and chervil give it an extremely stimulating fragrance.
Palate:
On the palate we encounter a complex and finely spicy rosé - juicy fruit combined with stimulating structure and fine tannin. The salty mineral reverberation makes it a sophisticated drop and excellent food companion.
