Vinification of the François Lurton Les Fumées Blanches Rosé

This elegant rosé wine from France is vinified from the Merlot grape variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Sud Ouest. The vines here dig their roots deep into soils of clay and limestone. After harvesting, the grapes reach the winery by the fastest route. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. Fermentation follows in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by aging on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.
