Ariel Rouge

Ariel Rouge is a blend of Cabernet  Sauvignon and Petite Shiraz grapes, carefully chosen from California appellation vineyards.  The grapes are selected that show good aroma, balance and adequate tannins for aging and feature aromas of cranberry, strawberry and plum, with soft tannins and a dry finish.

It is at its optimum maturity one year after bottling, but can be opened immediately or held up to five years before enjoying.

Ideal to serve with:
This wine goes well with beef or pasta with marinara sauce and is a great base for sangria. Can be added to recipes which call for red wine.

Winemaking Notes:
Ariel Rouge is fermented and aged in the traditional red wine method: fermentation in stainless steel cooperage on the skins at temperatures above 24°C ( 75° F). for optimum color extraction and complexity of aromas and tannins. Some of the finished wine is oak aged for additional complexity and just prior to bottling, the alcohol is gently removed by cold filtration.
