Omina Romana Merlot Rosato IGT 2021

Omina Romana's Merlot Rosato IGT 2021 is a delicious and refreshing rosé wine from the Lazio region of Italy. The wine has a delicate and pale pink color, and aromas of fresh strawberries, raspberries, and a hint of citrus. On the palate, it is bright and crisp with flavors of red berries, watermelon, and a subtle minerality that leads to a clean and refreshing finish.

The grapes for this wine are grown on the slopes of the Alban Hills, where the volcanic soils and temperate climate provide optimal growing conditions for the Merlot variety. The grapes are handpicked and gently pressed to extract only the best juice, which is then fermented at low temperatures to preserve the delicate aromas and flavors of the wine.

One interesting fact about Omina Romana is that it takes its name from the "Vestal Virgins," who were priestesses of the ancient Roman religion. They were responsible for keeping the sacred fire of the goddess Vesta burning, and were considered to be the embodiment of purity and virtue.
