Vinification of the Monograph Rosé from Gaia Wines The grapes for the Monograph Rosé from Gaia Wines come from a selected growing area in the Peloponnese, a region known for its diverse soils and special climatic conditions. The Moschofilero grape variety grows on clay soils that are deep and rich in nutrients, which favors aromatic development. The grapes are harvested early in their ripeness in order to preserve the fresh fruitiness and lively acidity. Harvesting takes place at the optimal time, at around 20° C, with careful handpicking guaranteeing the preservation of the aromatic substance. After the grapes are received, the berries are strictly sorted and subjected to controlled maceration in stainless steel tanks. Temperature control at around 12 to 14°C ensures the preservation of delicate herbal and fruit aromas. Maturation in stainless steel tanks allows for a clear, crisp texture as well as the preservation of the wine’s freshness and acidity. During fermentation, the wine remains on its fine lees for several months, which contributes to a finely structured texture. After fermentation is complete, the rosé is filtered to ensure its brilliant color and clarity, and finally receives a screw cap closure that optimally protects the wine from oxidation.
