We named it ROSALEA MEETS YOUTH.
To the young people involved in the process of its creation, but also to those who know how to enjoy it: some – young in age, others – in spirit and soul.
ROSALEA MEETS YOUTH is a project unique and unique of its kind in our country.
Its main purpose is to be a platform. One that can be stepped on by young, talented and not-so-experienced people in wine production – students studying or recently graduated from the “Wine and Beer Technology” specialty.
To give them the opportunity to learn by doing, and above all, to experience the magic of winemaking up close.

Combining with food
A young and fruity wine with a delicate and fresh taste that can be consumed both with food and as an aperitif.
Varieties
Cabernet Franc
Harvest
Mild and warm winter. We welcomed the holiday of Trifon Zarezan with the winter sun of Sakar.
On February 20, the first vines of Rubin and Cabernet Franc burst, but the long, rainy
and a cool spring delayed their flowering and fertilization by about 2 weeks. We have entered summer
with good moisture retention of the vines. A period of extreme followed in July and August
high temperatures characteristic of South Saqqara. However, we report a delay in
the ripening of the grapes during this harvest by about a week to 10 days. The scheduled start
of the grape harvest for September 4 was postponed due to heavy rain. The official launch
we gave on September 7th, exactly 10 days later than the previous harvest.

Technology
The inspiration in the second year of the project is Cabernet Franc. We decided to follow
the idea from the 2022 harvest to create a wine with a light, fresh taste and a pronounced fruity aroma,
which expresses the youthful modern spirit.
The grapes in the Rosalea vineyard were carefully monitored almost every other day from
August 28 until harvest time. It had to hit the exact moment we have
stable flavors and not too high sugars. On September 22 early in the cool hours
we picked the grapes by choosing the most evenly ripened bunches.
The crunching of the grapes is machine-like, and foot-crushing provides the delicate
releasing the juice without damaging the seeds. It is before sowing with the yeast
made a short maceration of the grapes for 48 hours. During fermentation
the temperature is controlled to 23 °C. The total contact of the wine with the skins is 10 days.
After completion of fermentation, the wine lees is separated and seeded with bacteria
for lactic acid fermentation. After completing all the processes, the wine is
decanted 3 times to separate sediments and bottled without filtration.
The label is inspired by the wine itself and its journey from the vineyard to the bottle. For
its creation used mixed techniques, including painting with sediment from the samo
wine.
