Caliterra Shiraz Rose Reserva

The grapes were harvested at optimum maturity. Once destemmed and gently crushed in stainless-steel tanks, we waitedfor 24 hours and approximately 5% to 10% of the juice was bled off to obtain the best colour for the wine.

The must was centrifuged and fermented at a temperature of 12°-15° C; we also took special care in protecting the must by inert gases during fermentation in order to avoid oxidation.

Fermentation of some lots was stopped before it was complete, lending the final blend sweetness and fruity aromas of fermentation. The wine was stabilised, filtered and bottled early.

Vintage

Since our last harvest we started to use a special software, being able to separate the different lots within a same section of the vineyard. During this season, we have worked in depth with all the varieties using this technique, allowing us to achieve a great increase in the quality of the grapes.

We reached the 2 golden viticulture rules: harvest at the right moment and to handle homogeneous grapes in each tank. Nevertheless, it is also important to mention that the vines are already 11 years old and are showing a fantastic stability and maturity; in this way our vision towards the future is very optimistic.

Winemaker Notes

Our Reserva Shiraz Rosé shows a vigorous and lovely pink colour. In the aromatic expression strawberry notes, ripe raspberries and cherries prevail. On the palate a round, soft and pleasant mouthfeel ends in a long and persistent finish
