Force Celeste Cinsault Rosé
THIS 100% CINSAULT ROSÉ FROM SWARTLAND, SOUTH AFRICA, COMES FROM A SEASON THAT BEGAN WITH A WET WINTER SUPPORTING STRONG VINE GROWTH AND ENDED WITH A HOT, DRY SUMMER THAT REQUIRED CAREFUL HAND SELECTION OF RIPE, SUN-EXPOSED GRAPES. HAND-PICKED, CHILLED, AND CAREFULLY SORTED, THE GRAPES UNDERWENT GENTLE WHOLE-CLUSTER PRESSING FOR LIGHT EXTRACTION BEFORE FERMENTING NATURALLY WITH WILD YEASTS AND MINIMAL INTERVENTION TO PRESERVE FRESHNESS AND DELICACY.
OUR WINE MATURED ON ITS LEES FOR 8 MONTHS IN NEUTRAL FRENCH OAK BEFORE BOTTLING WITHOUT FINING OR FILTRATION, WITH ONLY A SMALL SULPHUR ADDITION. THE RESULT IS AN ELEGANT, FRESH ROSÉ WITH BRIGHT FRUIT, A SOFT TEXTURE, AND A CLEAN, REFINED FINISH.
