Broc Cellars Love Rose Can 2023 375ml

Tasting Notes: Fresh-picked strawberries & savory herbs on the nose. Watermelon aqua fresca, dried thyme, strawberry smash & sea salt on the palate.

This vintage is about abundance: From the expansion of grape varieties featured to the flavors and textures up for exploration in the glass. The 2023 is mostly Valdiguié and Carignan with Zinfandel, Grenache Noir and Barbera – several new varieties to the Love Rosé blend.

We foot stomped the grapes, which remained on the skins and stems for up to 24 hours. All varieties, excluding the Grenache, were gently pressed into stainless steel tank to naturally ferment. The Grenache underwent carbonic maceration before it was pressed, fermented and aged in concrete tank. Sulphur was not added during fermentation and aging. Once fermented to dry, the wine aged on the lees for four months. All were blended at bottling with a small amount of sulphur addition. Each variety brings a unique quality to the wine - acidity from the Valdiguié, spice from the Zinfandel, texture from the Carignan, herbal notes from the Grenache Noir and salinity from the Barbera.
