Leonardslee Rose

Leonardslee Rose

Description

Grapes were hand-harvested in the cool of the morning. The bunches were hand-sorted and whole-bunch-pressed. Only free-run juice fermented in stainless steel was used in the final blend to create its delicate taste and originality. Full malolactic fermentation was done on the base wine to soften the 2021’s natural acidity, adding a creamy texture and depth. The final blend was bottled and it then underwent according to the traditional method second fermentation in the bottle. This is followed by bottle maturation of approximately 30 months, and only then was it disgorged, corked and labelled.

Rose gold in colour it shows prominent aromas of red berries, Turkish Delight and pomegranate with undertones of violets on the nose. The palate is seductively fresh & persistent with a lingering aftertaste of strawberry, nougat & sliced grapefruit. The mousse is fine and soft, leaving the taste buds with a tantalising sensation.
