La La Land welcomes Rosé 2017 to the family

Announcement posted by Wingara Wine Group 16 Oct 2017

La La Land Wines proudly announces the arrival of Rosé, delivered on 30th of October 2017 by a giant flamingo. Siblings Malbec, Pinot Gris and Tempranillo are delighted to welcome this alluring red head to their family.

La La Land Rosé 2017 was conceived saignée style about nine months ago, when our winemakers crushed some super tasty Victorian Pinot Noir.  After a short time on skins, we kept the free run juice separate.  A specially selected yeast kicked off a slow, cool ferment which captured natural juicy, strawberry flavours with a hint of fresh watermelon and toffee.  Minimal intervention at birth achieved Rosé’s natural, expressive style.  Pale and dry, we think Rosé is just beautiful.

Rosé fits right in with friends at a picnic, at a game of croquet or at any other social gathering this summer.  Retailing at $18 and available at independent retailers Australia wide, Rosé is vegan friendly.  Serve chilled with antipasto platters, fresh seafood or a huge pan of paella.  Alcohol is 12.5% with 5.7g/l acidity and less than 2g/l residual sugar.

ABOUT THE LA LA LAND FAMILY

La La Land adds a breath of fresh air to the sometimes-stuffy world of wine. An eclectic collection of new generation wines from family owned estate vineyards, La La Land wines are crafted from lesser known grape varieties, which thrive in the warm clime of north west Victoria.

La La Land wines are wines to explore -  flavoursome and generous, made with creative flair and a touch of funk to challenge traditional conventions.  La La Land is the official wine for the Jazz High Teas series at the Arts Centre Melbourne and is available at select retailers Australia wide.
