About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes come from the municipalities of Luni and Castelnuovo Magra. Mearosa combines three red varieties long associated with the local landscape, bringing together fruit, freshness, elegance and complexity.

Grapes

Ciliegiolo, Merlot and Vermentino Nero. Ciliegiolo and Merlot are joined by the native Vermentino Nero, whose fruit, freshness and delicate tannins suit the production of rosé.

Vinification

The grapes undergo cold maceration on their skins for 24 hours, followed by fermentation at a controlled temperature. The restrained period of skin contact is intended to preserve finesse and elegance.

Technical data

Liguria di Levante I.G.T. Rosato. Alcohol: 12.5% vol.

Tasting profile

Bright cherry-pink. The bouquet highlights wild berries, strawberry and pomegranate, accompanied by hibiscus flowers and delicate menthol notes. Fruit returns on the palate, balanced by a particularly fresh, floral finish.

Label / history

Rosé has formed part of the estate’s winemaking tradition for many years. Mearosa was conceived as a meeting point for several characteristics of its territory: freshness, elegance, fruit and complexity.
