This wine is a blend of Grenache and Syrah. We choose the coolest terroirs for this rosé. The grapes are picked at night. They are destemmed and pressed straight after<br />the harvest, and then aged on fine lees. The wine is a lovely pale pink colour, with a floral nose and a tender freshness on the palate that combines vivacity and roundness.<br />

Rosé wine<br /><br />The southern shores of the Benaco have always preserved the tradition of a graceful, fresh and gentle wine such as Rosa dei Frati. A high-level rosé capable of surprising for<br />its simple authority. Fresh and delicate yet incisive, it is capable of being the star of the table. The nose reveals hints of hawthorn blossom, green apple, white almond and<br />wild cherry. In the mouth, it is tasty, fresh, savoury and capable of stimulating the palate thanks to its vivid acidity and hints of small red fruits. The ease of drinking invites<br />the next glass with a carefree attitude. Recommended with not excessively fatty cold meats, fried mushroom vegetables, tomato and mozzarella salad, delicate pastas and<br />spring risottos, light white meats and fish with more decisive processing.<br /><br />Grape varieties used: Groppello, Marzemino, Sangiovese and Barbera<br />Soil composition: calcareous, clayey, loamy and sandy<br />Training system: simple and double Guyot<br />Type of vinification: in steel with light macerative contact<br />Malolactic fermentation: Not carried out<br />Ageing and evolution: in steel on fine lees 6 months, followed by 2 months in bottle<br />Alcohol content: 12.5%.<br />

Alìe 2023<br />Toscana IGT<br /><br />Alìe, a figure from Greek mythology, one of the sea nymphs, symbol of sensuality and beauty. Alìe, an elegant rosé with a light, pure colour and subtle ruby hues. A fine<br />balance between Syrah and Vermentino, which find their ultimate expression in close proximity to the sea. Aromas of white flowers, wild strawberries and citrus fruit rind<br />blend into a delicate structure with mineral hints typical of the area, giving a long and rich finish. Charming as an aperitif or with meals and good company.<br /><br />Climatic trend<br />The 2023 vintage was characterised by a mild winter with plenty of rain, concentrated mainly in December and January. The rains in March and April allowed the plants to<br />develop a vigorous, strong leaf wall, ensuring excellent vegetative development; the increase in temperatures and amount of water accumulated during the spring period led<br />to good cluster development in the summer period. The excellent summer temperatures and temperature fluctuations between day and night allowed aromatic substances to<br />accumulate on a large scale; the harvest period, characterised mainly by sunny days, enabled grapes to be picked at an optimal degree of ripeness. All this has translated<br />into highly structured wines with great aromatic expression.<br /><br />Technical notes<br />Wine Variety: Syrah, Vermentino<br />Alcohol content: 12%<br />Maturation: 3 months in steel tanks<br /><br />Vinification and ageing<br />Alìe's secret lies in the nature of the land, the vineyard management, and, of course, the human element. The grapes, once harvested, were transported to the cellar quickly<br />in order not to spoil or damage the bunches.One of the highlights of the production of Alìe was the pressing phase.Whole bunches were loaded into the press, an oxygen-<br />free environment. The pressure applied during this phase was extremely soft and gentle; this process, together with the carefully selected must and its subsequent<br />decanting for no fewer than 12 hours, helped to bring out the distinctive characteristics of this tempting rosé. The fermentations took place in stainless steel tanks at a<br />controlled temperature below 19° C. After maturing for a few months on fine lees, later including a period in the bottle, Alìe 2022 has turned out as persuasive and charming<br />as usual.<br /><br />Tasting notes<br />Alìe 2023 is characterised by its splendid pale pink colour. The bouquet is complex, with sensations that recall citrus notes, nectarine peach, floral notes of peony and rose.<br />It continues with notes of aromatic herbs, such as thyme, sage and rosemary. The iodine notes are beautiful. There is a notable harmony in taste and aroma. Your palate<br />will detect a beautiful freshness and notable flavour.<br />
