Sofia Rose 2023 750ml

Sofia Rosé is Francis Ford Coppola's tribute to his only daughter, and the Sofia wines are made to be delicious, refreshing and fun. The 2023 is a California blend led by Pinot Noir (41.1%) and Grenache (40.2%) with 18.7% other varieties, at 12.8% ABV.

The grapes are picked at a lower Brix so the wine stays light in character and pairs well with food. To reach the signature salmon pink hue, the fruit is held in the press only briefly, until the juice has just the right amount of pigment, with each variety adding its own tint to the blend. Fermentation happens at a cool temperature in stainless steel to keep the aromatics intense.

Expect crisp natural acidity with red cherry, tangerine, apple and flint, and aromas of strawberry, blood orange and acacia. Serve it cold with grilled prawns, a summer salad or a long afternoon lunch. Ralph's imports it directly, with Metro Manila delivery.
