Wölffer Estate “Spring in a Bottle” Rosé
WHY WE LOVE IT
- Wölffer Estate Spring in a Bottle Rosé is reminiscent of springtime in the Hamptons.
- This high-quality non-alcoholic, low calorie dry Rosé sparkling wine is organically grown.
Varietal Composition: Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Saint Laurent and Dornfelder
Elaboration: Hand-picked mid-September. Skin maceration of 12 hours to get the right rose color, and then was followed by gentle whole cluster pressing. The juice was fermented slowly at cool temperatures in stainless-steel tanks. After a short aging time on the lees, the wine was then filtered. In the Spring it undergoes a vacuum rectification which gently removes the alcohol and other volatiles at the relatively low temperature of 77°F and with all the aromatics blended back afterwards. Sweetened with the minimal amount of sugar to achieve perfect balance and freshness. The alcohol-free wine was then sparged with CO2 and bottled.
Tasting Notes: This exquisite alcohol-free, low calorie, dry Rosé sparkling wine is a perfect choice to have a fun filled evening, long lunch, afternoon entertaining at the pool or long multi-course dinner. Beautiful and vibrant with great acidity and perfectly balanced by elegant fruitiness.
