Botter Gran Passione Veneto Rosso
$20.39
This Veneto blend of Corvina Rosso and Merlot offers great value. The 2022 vintage offers a core of plush cherry and spiced plums with a hint of vanilla. The grapes are harvested slightly overripe, then de-stemmed and vinified with approximately 15 days of maceration to extract colour and tannin structure. The late harvest gives it a slight Amarone profile minus the 16% punch of alcohol.

Located in the foothills of the mythical Mont Ventoux, Château La Croix des Pins is a charming and authentic Provencale Bastide that dates back to the 16th century. The winery's rosé is made from grapes grown in vineyards sheltered from the punishing “Mistral” winds in a natural biosphere reserve classified by UNESCO.
