Monte della Guardia · Vino Rosato 2017

  The “Monte della Guardia Vino Rosato” from the Azienda Agricola Ca' Lojera winery reflects the sunny moraine hill terroir south of Lake Garda with youthful freshness and Mediterranean lightness. The grapes—a balanced cuvée of 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon—grow on stony, well-aerated soils and are gently fermented in stainless steel tanks to bring out the clear fruit aromas and lively structure without the influence of wood.

In the glass, this Rosato displays a bright cherry red color with ruby red reflections—a visual promise of freshness and enjoyment. The nose reveals carefree aromas of raspberry, currant, and orange zest, interspersed with a slight hint of mint and white stone—the Mediterranean location is clearly noticeable. On the palate, juicy fruit combines with a charming flow and a finely balanced finish, carried by fruitiness and pleasant lightness - an ideal rosé for convivial moments or as an accompaniment to antipasti and light summer cuisine. - Gerardo [TS10/18]
