Description
Peller Estates Proprietor’s Reserve Rosé is a meticulously crafted wine from Ontario’s renowned Niagara Peninsula, produced by Peller Estates, a family-owned winery with a rich winemaking heritage. The wine is a blend of 83% Pinot Noir, 15% Gamay Noir, and 2% Pinot Meunier grapes, selected from long-standing vineyards to ensure quality and consistency. The winemaking process involves several hours of skin contact to achieve the perfect pink hue, followed by pressing, cool fermentation, and aging in stainless steel tanks with a small portion aged in neutral oak barrels. This method preserves the fresh fruit character and imparts subtle complexity to the wine. The result is a light, dry rosé with a delicate copper-pink color and inviting aromas of strawberry, cherry, white peach, and summer roses. On the palate, it offers a harmonious balance of tangy red berries, crab apple, and a touch of rhubarb and peach, leading to a smooth and refreshing finish. With an alcohol content of 12%, this rosé is versatile and pairs well with a variety of dishes, including Greek salads, BBQ shrimp skewers, poached salmon, and tapas. Whether enjoyed on its own or with food, Peller Estates Proprietor’s Reserve Rosé offers a refined and approachable wine experience, reflecting the excellence of Canadian winemaking.
