Thierry & Guy Blend, France
Fat Bastard Rose is a blend of Shiraz and Grenache from Languedoc. These grapes were carefully selected to attain a fruit-forward, full bodied blend that is fresh and lively.
The grapes were harvested at the end of August. Daytime temperatures were very high, so the grapes were harvested during the night. This allowed the grapes to be picked and maintained at a temperature that preserves the aromas and tannins. The winemakers work very closely with the growers to determine the date and sometimes even the hour, to start the harvest. The goal is to seek aromatic ripeness and rich varietal character.
Round and full on the palate with ripe red fruits and a long fresh finish. On the nose its complex, expressive with intense raspberry and strawberry notes. Colour is pink with purple-blue hues.
World Food Wine: Enjoy as an aperitif, with bbq food, fresh summer salads, spicy and fried food or simply pair with soft cheeses.
