L’Ironda AOP Bordeaux rosé 2022 Organic – Merlot

Grape varieties: 100% Merlot Geographical origin: Commune of Braud-et-Saint-Louis, on the banks of the Gironde estuary. SOIL Deep clay soils on slopes where large shrinkage cracks form in summer. The vines are deep-rooted in these vertical fissures and extend new roots into the subsoil. When wet, particularly in winter, the clay expands, closing the macropores and destroying these roots as the soil dries out. The root architecture of each vine is thus maintained in a constant tension between physical stress and regrowth. This promotes the gradual, early onset of moderate water stress, conducive to producing grapes with fine winemaking potential. Viticulture: Sustainable pruning, bud pruning, leaf thinning, green harvesting. The high leaf canopy rapidly consumes the soil’s water reserves by evapotranspiration and ensures an adequate leaf-to-fruit ratio, propitious to good concentration and extraction. The grapes are picked early in the morning at optimum ripeness (slightly overripe), to preserve their intrinsic fruitiness and full aromatic expression. Fermentation: In stainless-steel vats. Food & wine pairings: Tagliatelle with grilled courgettes, grilled chicken, and tomato-burrata&basil salad
