Winemaking and aging

The grapes are softly pressed before the alcoholic fermentation which occurs in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation. It is held on the lees in stainless steel tanks for about 6 months until just prior to bottling, and then it rests for at least 2 months before release

Piasa, the legendary creature of Native Americans

Our Rosato is named after a legendary creature painted by Native Americans on a hillside by the Mississippi River. It has a human head with deer antlers and beard, bat wings, eagle limbs and a tail ending in a fin that make it look like the dragon of Western imagination. According to legend, whose name means “the bird that devours men,” it terrorized Native American villages by killing hordes of warriors defending its lands before being killed by Chief Ouatoga.
