PRIDE LANGHE ROSATO
Our 2020 spring release PRIDE was our second vintage with our partner Oddero Winery. PRIDE is a bottle of wine on a mission. Nearly seven years past the U.S. Supreme Court marriage equality victory in 2015, United Vines stands with the LGBTQ+ community.
United Vines is committed to working toward a more inclusive society where those who identify in the LGBTQ+ community can enjoy full freedom of expression. The proceeds of United Vines second vintage ‘PRIDE’ will go to the ACLU’s continuous fight for basic human rights and freedoms for the LGBTQ+ community.
Pride isn’t just a month—it’s a lifestyle. So join us: In every glass you give back.
WINE DESCRIPTION
"We used 100% Nebbiolo grapes. The vineyard we selected is located in the mid of La Morra hill with a South-Eastern exposure and higher in altitude (about 320 meters above sea level), it is called Le Ru-Roggeri, the vines are 10 years old, our youngest Nebbiolo plants, perfect for Rosato. We harvested our grapes in the mid of September.
Similar to the previous vintage, the grapes were pressed whole cluster with a consecutive maceration of about 8 hours in the press. The wine was fermented in stainless steel tank and then refined in a concrete tank.
The color is pale pink. Its color is more gentle and softer nuance of pink than last year because it is 100% Nebbiolo grapes with no Barbera blend. Our Langhe Rosato presents a beautiful bouquet of delicate roses and white flowers, like gardenia, and a very intense note of fresh and crisp fruit, especially cherry and redcurrant, some nuances of red apple and yellow peach appear at the end. On the palate it is a structured wine, more dense, more vertical and with a bright minerality."
