About this wine

Grapes

Syrah (Shiraz) makes up most of the wine, with a small percentage of Vermentino.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness. Whole bunches are pressed without exposure to oxygen, and the must then settles for 12 hours. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at 19 °C.

Ageing

The wine rests for three months in steel tanks, then one month in bottle in the winery's cellars.

Tasting profile

An elegant, fresh rosé.

Label / history

The name comes from Alie, a sea nymph who symbolizes sensuality and beauty, and who inspired the winemakers.
