Zoe Wines Rose

  • Rose
  • Agiorghitiko (70%), Moscofilero (30%)

Vinification & Aging

Skin contact for 24-48 hours for Agiorghitiko, 6 hours for the Moscofilero. Juice is blended together and fermented in stainless steel vats at cold temperatures. Malolactic fermentation is restricted.

The wine is aged for a short time over fine lees in stainless steel tanks.

Ecosystems

This blend of several different vineyards planted at high elevation. The Agiorghitiko is planted on clay soils within the Nemea region while the Moscofilero comes from vineyards in the Mantineia region planted on sandy soils. Elevation allows for the grapes to mature slowly, developing complex flavor and natural high acidity.

Tasting Notes

The color is bright, light cerise with pink hues. Vibrant and clear on the nose, with aromas of ripe cherries, raspberries, hints of flowers and rose petal notes. On the palate it has a medium body, moderately high acidity, and the slightest suggestion of very ripe tannins. Flavors are consistent with the aromas, with a light sensation of sweet grass and bubble gum. The finish is moderately long, with developing flavors that lead to complexity.
