2021 La Vie Malbec Rosé
Malbec grapes are known for their flavors of dark, plump fruits, especially berries. The grape also enjoys higher elevations and does well in warmer climates, making it a perfect match for an excellent Texas rosé.
The La Vie 100% Malbec Rosé shows off a bright raspberry hue. Aromas of red berries, watermelon and grapefruit tease your taste buds. The light body and crisp acidity provide a lovely balance to strawberries and watermelon on the palate, with a slight mineral finish. This wine is delicious to sip anytime and pairs well with fish and mild spices.
2021 Malbec Rosé had a prolonged soak and press cycle, followed by a cold soak. It was aged about 8 months in stainless steel, with partial malolactic fermentation to smooth the acid, but keep it tart. The grapes are from the Steve and Cindy Newsom Vineyards.
