Eros is the god of love. According to tradition, Eros was the son of Ares and Aphrodite. He is depicted as a child, often with wings, who takes pleasure in wreaking havoc in the hearts of lovers, sometimes inflaming and sometimes injuring them. This rosé wine made from Nebbiolo grapes is dedicated to Eros. During fermentation, the must has only brief contact with the skins, releasing the best fruit aromas that contribute to the production of this seductive wine that is excellent as an aperitif.
Vineyard: in the town of Sizzano, Vernazzole region, vineyard Cirilu, 0-20 Ha. South-south/west facing. Acidic clayey sandy soil.
Grapes: 100% Nebbiolo, known locally as Spanna.
Grape yield per hectare: 6,000 kg Winemaking: manual harvest in crates in early October: short contact namely maximum 8 hours of skin with must. Then fermentation at a controlled temperature (20°C).
Maturing and bottling: During the unzipping of the grape bunches, Paride uses dry ice (criomaceration) to stabilize the aromas and color.
The grapes are then pressed in a traditional vertical press (which does not over-compress the grapes and ensures a gentle pressing).
The wine is then fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature.
Organoleptic characteristics: brilliantly intense rosè; intense fresh aroma with hints of forest fruits, especially raspberries and strawberries, with considerable persistence of earthy notes reminiscent of wild flowers. An intense flavor of ripe fruit, sharp but balanced and harmonious with a hint of tannin, allowing this wine to linger.
Food and Wine Pairing: this wine can be drunk throughout a meal and is the perfect accompaniment to white meats and fish. The sharp flavor and mild tannin content of this wine enhances baked dishes, especially fried vegetables. An excellent match for any pasta dish with a simple tomato sauce. Serving temperature: 12°C. Optimal aging: this wine is ready for consumption during the first and second years of life. Third year of life - for rosés this is the last year of life - the wine no longer evolves compared to the second year of life.
Alcohol content: 12.5%.
