KORBEL Sweet Rosé is made from a complex selection of both red and white grape varietals and is designed to have very bright fruit flavors and aromas of raspberry and vanilla. The harvesting of red varietals early in the ripening process helps achieve the desired style for this cuvée.
Composition: Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Sangiovese, Gamay and Chenin Blanc
Winemaking
The broad array of red grapes used in the KORBEL Sweet Rosé blend gives us an incredibly diverse selection of blending alternatives. Varieties like Pinot Noir, Gamay and Zinfandel give us light, bright wines with high levels of acidity. The Sangiovese is more intensely aromatic and contributes a deeper color to the blend. The Chenin Blanc keeps the blend delicate and balanced.
