Few Canadian wineries take rosé as seriously as @malivoire. It was part of the opening inventory and has been subject to ongoing research and development to a point where @malivoire pink portfolio stands amongst the very best wines in the country.

Winemakers Notes
The vivid nose is dappled by lively grapefruit, peach, cherry and pear, perfume and floral tinges too. Citrus and pear flavours, plus plum and cranberry, flow to the palate, leaving a fresh and spirited sensation in the mouth.
Hand-picked on cool mornings of October 12th – 21st from a young pinot noir block in the Moira Vineyard. Grape sugars averaged 20.9° Brix.
Whole grape clusters were gently pressed for minimal contact between juice and skins. After briefly chilling in a low-profile stainless-steel tank (resembling a dairy tank) for optimum lees contact, 64% of the juice fermented in a ceramic orb, while the remaining 36% fermented in a mature French oak barrel for additional depth and complexity.
The finished wine, filling only 64 cases, was bottled in April 2022.
