Description
The Pig in the House Organic Rosé is the first release and is made from Sangiovese with the slightest addition of Shiraz. Stylistically we are aiming to capture the varietal characters. Flavour-wise, this was achieved at around 11.7 baume when the berries where showing vibrant red fruit flavours.
The wine is made solely from free-run juice and treated as an aromatic white in order to highlight the crisp, berry flavours. We fermented a small portion of the wine in older, seasoned oak in order to build some complexity and texture.
The wine was then blended with a touch (0.6%) of Shiraz which adding subtle complexity and underscoring the beautiful natural salmon pink colour.
