The Calalenta Merlot Fantini Rosé is an elegant and fresh rosé from Abruzzo, Italy. Made from 100% Merlot grapes, this wine combines modern winemaking techniques with the classic charm of Italian wines. The result is a refined rosé that is both accessible and complex.
Vineyard and Vinification
The Merlot grapes for Calalenta are hand-picked at night to optimally preserve their freshness and aromas. The vineyards are located in the hilly Abruzzo region at an altitude of approximately 250 meters above sea level, which contributes to a perfect balance between acidity and ripeness. After harvesting, the grapes are cooled to -1°C and then fermented at low temperatures of maximum 10°C. This process results in a rosé with a refined aroma and an exceptionally fresh taste.
Tasting Notes
This rosé has a delicate, pale pink color and entices with aromas of strawberries, watermelon, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, you taste a harmonious combination of small red fruits, fresh citrus nuances, and a hint of minerality. The wine has a lively acidity and a soft, long finish that invites another sip.
Serving Suggestions
The Calalenta Merlot Fantini Rosé is versatile and an excellent choice for various dishes. It pairs perfectly with light salads, grilled fish, or shellfish. This rosé also truly shines as an aperitif. For the best taste experience, serve this wine at a temperature of 6-8°C.
