If you're a red-wine drinker who's finding it too hot to drink the stuff, why not discover the beauty of pink? It has all the refreshment of white with much of the body and complexity of red. Fuzion Rosé is the best-selling seasonal rosé ever launched by the LCBO, and the new 2010 vintage has just arrived on store shelves. A very happy marriage of taste, value and price, Fuzion Shiraz Rosé is THE must-have accessory of the summer.
Tasting Note: Enticing aromas of strawberries, sweet cherries and blackberries draw you into the glass. Ripe and juicy on the palate, yet refreshingly delicate, it's the perfect balance of fruit and acidity.
Enjoy With: The ideal summer sipper, on its own or with food. Terrific with charcuterie, summer salads and grilled chicken.
Style: Slightly off-dry rosé wine.
Terroir / Region: Located on the slopes of the Andes, Mendoza is a grape-growing paradise. Intensely sunny days and very cool nights produce fruit of remarkable purity and distinction. The Santa Rosa vineyards, where the Shiraz Rosé fruit is sourced, is a desert microclimate in eastern Mendoza with a long growing season ideal for producing complex fruit flavours in late-ripening grapes like Shiraz.
Producer: The wildly popular Fuzion line comes from Familia Zuccardi in Argentina. A third-generation, family-owned winery, Zuccardi is committed to using as much manpower and as little machinery in the vineyards as possible. Father and son José Alberto and Sebastián have been recognized by renowned Decanter magazine as among the five most influential personalities in the Argentine wine world. Zuccardi's Santa Julia and Zuccardi lines are also widely available in Ontario.
Availability: Available at your nearest LCBO. Look for it in either the rosé or Argentinean section.
