Commercial Description
Rockford has been making Alicante Bouchet Rosé for more than 25 years. Alicante is genetically linked to the hardy pioneer variety of Grenache, so it’s also well-adapted to our warm Mediterranean climate. Because the flesh of this distinctive variety is bright red, there’s no need for the skins and juice to sit together to extract the colour and flavour before pressing. It’s one of a handful of varieties in the world which exhibits this characteristic. The exception to the rule! This unique grape ripens with full flavour at low sugar levels, which makes an aromatic, easy drinking, full flavoured, low alcohol wine.
