Fitzrovia Rosé

    • Description :

      The name Fitzrovia comes from the area of London between Bloomsbury and Camden, frequented by Sir Christopher Merret, the first person to document the traditional method in 1665.
      Whole-bunch pressed to limited pressure, which gives a low yield of 62% volume to weight. A natural cold settling takes places without the use of enzymes. Fermentation at a moderate temperature of 16-18 C in stainless steel using natural yeast. The red grapes are destemmed and fermented on skins at 25 C for 14 days. The blend is made just before malolactic fermentation is carried out
