Alpha Estate Single Vineyard Hedgehog Xinomavro Rosé 2023

The single vineyard grapes were destemmed, optically sorted and lightly crushed. A cold soak took place at 8°C for two hours followed by fermentation with selected yeasts at gradually increasing temperatures. The wine was maintained ‘sur lie’ or on its fine lees for three months with regular stirring to impart texture and complexity to the wine. Produced by the saignée method.

A pale and lively rosé with an aromatic and fresh bouquet of raspberry layered with rose petals, spice and mineral notes. Crisp with a creamy, fruity palate through to a long finish.
